Shannon - Men

Men only drug treatment facilities are similar to standard rehab programs except all the clients are male. These gender specific recovery facilities are helpful for men because they are able to participate with recovery in an environment 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 typically 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 participants are counseled on these distinct male issues and are given the education they need on how to avoid relapse once they complete treatment.
