Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Long Island, VA.

Rehab facilities offered to pregnant and postpartum women in Long Island offer broad range of services, non-punitive in nature, to make getting off drugs and alcohol possible, ensure opioid dependent mothers a passage into a drug free and healthy pregnancy with non-addicted infants, and obtain the rehabilitation they need to remain sober while postpartum.

States which provide pregnant and postpartum mothers with rehab services in lieu of legal consequences, including 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 well-being of the infants and other children involved. Services provided at such programs may involve group, individual, and family counseling as well as prenatal and postpartum care.
