KFF Health News (9/13, Saint Louis) reports, “Family-based residential treatment” for addiction “has been recognized by behavioral health professionals as having better outcomes for women and their children,” but these “programs often struggle to stay afloat because of staffing shortages and volatile funding.” As a result, “families in rural areas are less likely to find such a residential treatment program in their communities.”
