States that provide pregnant and postpartum women with rehab services rather than legal consequences, including revocation of their parental rights, have found that these measures sustain the idea of maintaining the family as an unit and maintaining the mother's abstinence in place so that this positively enforces the welfare of the infants and other children involved. Services provided at such programs might involve group, individual, and family counseling as well as prenatal and postpartum care.
