While residential beds for clients children is not as common as other specialized types of addiction treatment facilities, 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 programs 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 close with their children through the treatment process of substance abuse recovery. A lot of parents (mothers in specific) do not want to admit that they need help with their addiction problemsfor fear that their children will be taken from them. These programs help to alleviate this fear while providing the care and support that both mother and child so desperately need.
