While residential beds for clients children is not as common as other specialized types of addiction treatment programs, they do, in fact, exist 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 facilities offered beds for both mothers and their children. There is a substantial advantage 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 close with their children through the treatment process of addiction recovery. Most parents (mothers in particular) do not want to admit that they need help with their addiction issuesbecause they fear that their children will be taken away. These programs help to alleviate this fear while providing the care that both mother and child so desperately need.
