Breaking the cycle of addiction, poverty and violence for women and their children.We offer drug and alcohol treatment with individual treatment plans, weekly counseling, weekly individual case management, and five self-help support meetings a week. We expect that women will benefit from at least two years of supportive services. Our program model addresses issues that sabotage recovery and attempts at independence, such as the trauma of physical and sexual abuse, attachments to unhealthy interpersonal relationships, grief and loss issues, limited education and job skills or experience. While women participate in the alcohol and drug treatment program, they live in Amethyst’s community of recovery and peer support. Creating a stable, drug-free environment helps the women to build a sober support network. We provide opportunities from volunteering, learning how to manage paychecks and GED attainment to higher education, employment and beginning a career. We encourage the children of our clients to live with their mothers in our supportive housing and be a part of the treatment plan. Amethyst provides family counseling and counseling for the children that helps heal families from the effects of addiction. For more than 30 yearshas been committed to providing a safe, stable environment in which recovering drug and alcohol dependent women, and women with families, can work toward and maintain sobriety. Treatment is client-centered. This means that each woman's treatment and length of stay is tailored to meet her own specific needs.including intensive outpatient treatment for addiction; traditional outpatient treatment; supportive housing; medical services; mental health and trauma treatment; family services; and job readiness and placement. Women leave Amethyst as healthy, productive citizens who work, further their education, raise children, buy homes and experience the joys that recovery can bring. The staff at The Meadows Texas shared their professional expertise and provided us with training to better assist our patients. The generous donation from CompanyName allowed us to purchase quality supplies and medical equipment. Last, but not least, we would like to thank Stance Healthcare for the custom furniture we have received as a gift. Our staff and patients are grateful for your contribution. |
