Leslie - WomenDrug rehab centers for women are a very good way for female substance abusers to deal with their addiction issues in an all-female setting. There are several benefits to attending a drug or alcohol rehab facility for women such as the fact that such programs cater to issues specific to their female clients. While receiving treatment in an all women rehab facility the client will also address personal issues such as problems with their husbands, boyfriends and/or men in general. Most women drug addicts struggle with physical or sexual abuse from their past. Addressing these sensitive issues while in treatment will give the recovering woman the ability to face her problems in an atmosphere that is supportive and free from judgment.
