Drug and alcohol rehab programs for women are a very good way for female substance abusers to deal with their addiction issues in an all-female environment. There are several advantages to attending a drug or alcohol treatment 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 rehab facility 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 rehab will give the recovering woman the capacity to confront her problems in an environment that is supportive and free from judgment.
