Riel House is a specialized long-term program offering an all-women’s residence where mothers can keep their young children with them while they tackle addiction problems. Women living at Riel House receive treatment for their chemical dependency and are able to keep their babies and other children
under age six with them. Our aim is to provide a healthy lifestyle and chemical-free environment for women and their children while learning new coping and parenting skills. Handling and enjoying social
and recreational situations without the use of alcohol and drugs is emphasized. Women may enter treatment at Riel House at any time during their pregnancies. Women are also eligible for treatment at
Riel House if they are actively parenting children under age six or if they are seeking return of their children under age six from protective custody (CPS). Riel House exclusively serves women and is staffed by specially trained counselors. Therapy is an ongoing part of living at Riel House.
