About Women’s Recovery Services – Santa Rosa
Women’s Recovery Services on Hendly Street in Santa Rosa, California helps women who are expecting or have young children find support through their journey to sobriety and motherhood. Women receive residential treatment in a compassionate and supportive environment for them and their children.
Support includes a very structured programming schedule each day. There are evidence-based groups that help address trauma, improve self-esteem, offer parenting education, teach the importance of non-violent communication and build healthy relationships. Therapeutic child care is provided to help women focus on recovery, while children can focus on healing too.
Life skills, communication, and positive goals for mothers and families are the ultimate goals of the program. Parenting educators, therapists, child care providers and mental health and addiction specialists help women through the 120 day program in residential care. There is an aftercare program that lasts between a year and two depending on the family’s needs. A graduation candlelight night is held to acknowledge and celebrate the successful completion of residential treatment and aftercare.
There is also transitional housing available to graduates of the WRS residential treatment program.
Treatment isn’t just about addiction recovery at WRS, it is about life recovery. Women receive support in addressing medical and psychological health concerns or conditions. They help women heal from the past and prepare for a healthier and more self-aware future for themselves and their children. Lives and generations are changed by changing the habits, choices, resources and opportunities of one woman.
Each woman is supported and healed until she realizes her own worth and her own power to change the trajectory of her life and the lives of her young children. Each day and each moment can be a step to a brighter, healthier, more joyful life. Women learn their choices and mindset are what makes the difference.
