Drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs for women are an excellent way for female addicts to handle their addiction issues in an all-female setting. There are several advantages to attending a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program for women such as the fact that such programs cater to issues specific to their female clients. While receiving treatment in an all women treatment program the client will also deal with personal issues such as problems with their husbands, boyfriends and/or men in general. Most women struggling with drug or alcohol addiction also struggle with physical or sexual abuse from their past. Addressing these sensitive issues while in treatment will give the recovering woman the capacity to face her problems in an atmosphere that is free of judgment and negativity.
