ParentCare Family Recovery Center

Specialties

ParentCare Family Recovery Services are designed for chemically dependent women and their families who are at high risk for child abuse, domestic violence and homelessness. A majority of women in treatment also have a dual psychiatric diagnosis and a host of physical health related issues.

Services are evidence-​based or best practice alcohol and drug treatment modalities to facilitate ongoing sobriety. Women in the program have the opportunity to make critical lifestyle changes and establish a safe, nurturing home environment for their children. Treatment services are gender sensitive and focus on the special needs of parenting women with chemical dependency (addiction) and limited parenting and living skills.

Unique features of the ParentCare model include on-​site psychiatric services for clients with a co-​occurring mental health disorders; the Therapeutic Learning Center (TLC) on-​site specialized pre-​school and childcare services; and access to the Vista Hill Sober Living Apartments, a drug-​free sober living environment for families.

ParentCare plays a critical partnership role with County Child Welfare Services, drug and family courts, local hospitals and community collaboratives.
