SWS Treatment Program

 

 

 

 

Quapaw House Specialized Women's Services provide a residential facility for substance abusing pregnant and parenting women (with children under 6) - a unique group with special treatment requirements. Our primary mission is to provide an opportunity for women to break the cycle of addiction and enjoy healthy, contented, serene and productive lives. This program offers a safe and secure facility, which allows a woman's small children to reside with her while she is in treatment for substance abuse.

Criteria to enter QHI SWS Program:

  • Be at least fourteen years of age
  • Have a substance abuse problem
  • Be willing and able to participate in her recovery program.
  • Have a desire to stop using and abusing chemicals of all kinds
The residential phase may last up to three months, at which time a client may transition to our Chemical Free Living Center Program and reside in that facility for up to two years.

    • HIV disease prevention

All family groups and counseling are facilitated by a Licensed Therapist, Certified Substance Abuse Counselor, or Counselor-In-Training under the direct supervision of a Certified Clinical Supervisor. It is strongly recommended that residents become involved in the family 12-Step support group.

TB education and HIV disease prevention education are components of the treatment program. Educational classes are included in the residential as well as the outpatient/aftercare program. These group and individual sessions are facilitated by Arkansas Department of Health Certified Instructors.
