Drug and alcohol treatment programs for women provide a very good way for female addicts to handle their addiction issues in an all-female atmosphere. There are several advantages to attending a drug or alcohol rehab program for women including the fact that such programs cater to issues specific to their female clients. While recovering from addiction 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 drug addicts struggle with physical or sexual abuse from their past. Dealing with these sensitive issues while in treatment will give the recovering woman the capacity to face her problems in an environment that is free of judgment and negativity.
