About Alcohol Drug Abuse Women’s Center – Galveston
The ADA Women’s Center is a drug and alcohol rehab for women in Galveston, Texas. The core of the program is their intensive residential program, but they also have a supportive level of care that you transition into after your residential program to help guide you into independent sober life.
When I say that their residential program is intensive, it isn’t an exaggeration. You’ll have 30 hours every week of group which includes educational groups and group therapy. You’ll be attending 12 Step meetings daily because the 12 Steps are a foundation in this program. Plus you’ll be meeting with your counselor individually.
As a rehab for women only, this program also has services that are specific to women. They’ll help you work through mental health and emotional health challenges in trauma therapy and they have parenting classes too for moms in rehab.
This rehab knows though that healing and therapy aren’t the only things you need for long term recovery. They’ll help you establish your post addiction life too by teaching you life skills and even occupational skills to help you get a job. They want to help you set up your new life so you have support and stability in your sobriety.
What I found especially touching though is that their rehab especially helps women who’re medically indigent. This refers to women who don’t have health insurance and aren’t eligible for Medicare or Medicaid or other health care assistance programs so they have to pay for all their medical care. These women often can’t get the care they need but this rehab makes sure there’s a place for them.
