Although residential beds for clients children is not as common as other specialized types of drug or alcohol treatment centers, they are possible to find if you are in need. Back in 2007, the National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services reported that 515 (14%) of residential substance abuse treatment programs offered beds for both mothers and their children. There is a great benefit to both the mother and child who are able to attend programs that offer residential beds for clients children. The parent is able to receive the addiction treatment they need while remaining involved with their children through the treatment process of addiction recovery. Many parents (mothers in particular) do not want to admit that they need help with their addiction issuesfor fear that their children will be taken away. These programs help to alleviate this fear while offering the care and support that both mother and child so desperately need.
