Some parents may not look for treatment for drug or alcohol addiction mainly because they are fearful that their children may end up in foster care with total strangers. While this is often the situation, some drug rehabilitation programs around the Girdwood, AK. area actually supply residential beds for client's children to ensure they can receive care at the alcohol and drug treatment facility while at the same time keeping their children by their side. This provides a feeling of relief to moms and dads in the Girdwood, AK. area who would otherwise temporarily or permanently have to give up their parental rights, who can instead have their children in their care which often gives parents great reassurance. Both parent and child can benefit from being in such a rehabilitation program while the mother or father gets the opportunity to put their life back together, eventually being able to provide a fresh start for their kid once rehabilitation is finished.
