I Want to Get Involved in My Sister’s Drug Treatment Program. What Rehab Has This Kind of Program?

Question by alani ls: I want to get involved in my sister’s drug treatment program. What rehab has this kind of program?
We live in Brookline, Massachusetts. I just think my sister would recover faster if I get involved in some counseling or therapy sessions, as we are very close. She’s reluctant to go into inpatient rehabilitation, so I really want to be there for her as much as I possibly can. Can somebody help us find a rehab that will allow this?

There are probably some rehabs that will allow you to participate. There are some that have this as part of their program, since a lot of patients respond positively to treatment when a loved one is there with them. You can look through the links below and call some of the rehabs. They’ll be able to give you more information regarding this. Good luck!

Treatment program for addicted teens unveiled in Brockton – The Enterprise BROCKTON —Each week for years, Carol Kowalski would get phone call after phone call from desperate parents looking to get drug addicted teens into treatment. And each time, Kowalski would give the same answer: there was no in-patient state program for addicted adolescents. But now, with the opening of a new program in Brockton, Kowalski, site director of the Brockton Addiction Center for adults, will be able to give a different answer. High Point Treatment Center Thursday unveiled a 26-bed substance abuse treatment program for 13-to 17-year-olds on Meadowbrook Road, one of two in the state. “This is a huge milestone for us,” said Carolyn Castro Donlan, director of the office of Youth and Young Adults with the Department of Public Health, Bureau of Substance Abuse Services. “It provides new resources for youth and families that has not existed for families before here.” Joseph Shrand, the program’s medical director, said the teens will stay in the program between two and four followed by additional outpatient care.
