Show #1009

Kicking drugs. Learning how not to be an addict. When the rehab is residential, it means leaving the drug environment behind. But it also almost always means leaving family behind, too. And, for women, that means leaving their children. But a rehab center in rural Cumberland County is creating a new model: women who enter treatment with their kids. A new and improved way of treating addicted women ... or a well-meaning, but unrealistic, approach? On this edition of Due Process, Sandy King's mini-doc takes a close look at the Matriark program at Seabrook House, while Raymond Brown's studio discussion focuses on the pluses and the minuses of taking children into rehab ... and the broader questions of women, addiction and effective treatment.
