For people dealing with a drug or alcohol problem and also have the responsibility of a child or children to consider, going to treatment to get assistance may not be an option, unless they seek substance abuse treatment in St. Joseph that accepts kids. In these kinds of programs, there is supervision, beds and other amenities, childcare and even curriculum and tutoring based services available to their children while the individual receives treatment. The alternative is very grim when facilities do not provide solutions for mothers or fathers who don't have anywhere else for their child or children to go when they need help with a substance abuse problem.
Many of the drug or alcohol rehab programs accepting kids are gender specific, and most cater to mothers in recovery and their children. In accepting children, this takes a lot of worry and stress off both the family and the child/children by providing a safe, drug free, and stable place to live, receive medical, mental health and social services. In addition, it stops the dysfunction that has afflicted the parents because of any addiction disorder and violence, abuse, etc. associated with it.
As an aspect of a multi-dimensional methodology in recovery facilities that accept children, family therapy is often used where both the parent and child are involved, and the children may also receive individual therapy and psychotherapy as well.
