While residential beds for clients children is not as prevalent as other specialized types of addiction treatment centers, they do, in fact, exist if you are in need. Back in 2007, the National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services documented that 515 (14%) of residential substance abuse treatment centers provided beds for both mothers and their children. There is a great 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 involved with their children through the difficult process of addiction recovery. Most parents (mothers in specific) do not want to admit that they need help for their substance abuse issuesbecause they fear that their children will be taken away. These programs help to alleviate this fear while offering the proper care that both parent and child so desperately need.
