Programs & Services : Womens Services

Caron recognizes that a woman's experience of chemical dependency and recovery is different than a man's. Research has shown that women progress much better while in treatment in gender separate programs, so Caron has designed a comprehensive continuum of care to treat the female addict by providing the most progressive treatment to sensitively address the context of a woman's addiction and empower her individual recovery. Caron's programs are designed to address these issues in a safe and supportive environment.

Gender-separate services are provided to enhance the development of female support systems and focus on coexisting concerns that are important to women. Women are more likely to express themselves in gender separate groups and are often more willing to share about important issues, such a shame, relationships, body image, sexual trauma and parenting.
