Reality House
is a residential half-way house for chemically
dependent mothers and their dependent children. The
well-structured and supervised setting at Reality
House fosters emotional growth, encourages sobriety,
requires self-examination and teaches new problem
solving techniques which lead to positive life style
changes.
Our Mission
To provide quality comprehensive treatment to women
in recovery from chemical dependency, as well as
offer a safe, caring and supportive environment for
these women and their children, as well. Services
will focus on the women developing a healthy,
drug free lifestyle, dealing with issues unique to
their gender, becoming more nurturing parents,
obtaining job training and employment -- with the
ultimate goal of strengthening their families.
In working with the children of chemically dependent
mothers, the goal will be to help the children
understand their mother's disease, increase
resilience and reduce risk factors for substance
abuse, depression, violence and aggression,
delinquency and school failure.
