WOMEN'S TREATMENT

Gateway was one of the first drug treatment programs in the country to develop specific treatment protocols for women. Extensive research shows that women need specialized, comprehensive, gender responsive services if they are to overcome problems of substance abuse. Gateway’s community-based and corrections-based programs address issues of importance to women including:

  • Substance Abuse
  • Physical and mental health
  • Criminal thinking and behavior
  • Self esteem & coping skills
  • Personal responsibility
  • Relapse prevention
  • Conflict resolution
  • Physical, Sexual and Psychological Abuse
  • Pregnancy
  • Delivering drug-free babies
  • Parenting skills
  • Regaining parental rights
  • AIDS/HIV
  • GED and college preparation
  • Job training and interviewing
  • Sexuality
  • Spirituality
