Wesley, ME. - Men

Men only drug treatment programs are similar to standard, co-ed treatment programs except all the clients are male. These gender specific recovery programs are beneficial for men because they are able to share past traumatic memories in a setting where they can feel free of judgment and having to maintain a tough exterior at all times. The reasons men become addicted to drugs or alcohol is often different than women. The underlying issues that men struggle with when it comes to recovering from drug addiction are also different than women. While attending a men only drug treatment program clients are counseled on these distinct male issues and are given the education they need on how to avoid drugs and alcohol once they complete treatment.
