For persons dealing with a drug or alcohol addiction who also have a child or children in their care, going to rehab for assistance isn't an option, unless they find substance abuse rehabilitation in Athol accepting children. In these types of facilities, there are beds and other amenities, supervision, childcare and even curriculum and tutoring based programs available to the children while the individual receives treatment. The options are grim when facilities do not offer solutions for people who don't have anywhere else for their child or children to go when they need assistance with a drug or alcohol addiction.
Many of the drug or alcohol treatment centers that accept children are gender specific, and most cater to mothers in treatment and their children. By accepting children, this takes so much worry and stress off both the mom or dad 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 ends the worry that has plagued the parents because of any addiction disorder and violence, abuse, etc. associated with it.
As part of a multi-dimensional methodology in recovery facilities that accept children, family therapy is often used so that both the parent and child are involved, and the child/children may also get individual therapy and psychotherapy as well.
