Women's Gender Specific Services

The Women's Program is a program developed specifically for women and their families.  We assist women in changing their lives to live drug free.  This program is based on the belief that women drink and use drugs for different reasons then men and therefore need different services.  The Women's Program is designed to help women find solutions to their unique problems.

The program focuses on using their strengths rather than emphasizing their weaknesses.  We provide a safe and confidential environment in which to look at her options.  We can then choose the best course for their families and themselves.

Groups offered through The Women's Program:

• Contemplation Pre-Treatment: The Pre-Treatment group is for women who are not aware of the extent of problems created by their use.
