Programs available to pregnant and postpartum women in Jefferson provide a comprehensive spectrum of services, non-punitive in nature, to make abstinence from drugs and alcohol possible, allow opioid dependent mothers the transformation into a sober and healthy pregnancy with non-addicted newborn children, and receive the rehabilitation they need to stay clean and sober during postpartum.

States which offer pregnant and postpartum women with treatment services alternatively to legal consequences, such as revocation of their parental rights, have found that these types of services sustain the idea of maintaining the family together and maintaining the mother's abstinence and sobriety in place so that this positively enforces the welfare of the infants and other children involved. Services provided at such rehabilitation programs might include group, individual, and family counseling as well as prenatal and postpartum care.
