Pregnant Addict Daughter – Help Needed to Find Detox Facility?
Question by ann025788: Pregnant addict daughter – help needed to find detox facility?
My 21 year old daughter is 7 weeks pregnant (1st child) and a herion addict. She has gone through detox several times in the past but never able to stay clean.
She wants to keep the baby but doesn’t know where to turn for help with her pregnancy in regards to the drug abuse (mainlining). Does anyone have suggestions? We live in IL, she has no job, insurance, etc.

call social services. they would rather pay for rehab than an addicted infant. also shes preg she automaticaly qualifys for medicade food stamps aNd WIC good luck
I’m in Canada and really know NOTHING about Social Services in the US…I sure feel for you though as I am a teen councellor and see this WAY too often. Do you have a child protection agency…going to them for the baby’s interests might be a good avenue for you. Good luck…will say a prayer for you and your family!
Here’s a few links:
First, is a list of Rehabs, in IL, that help pregnant women.
Second, if you scroll down, for the one in Chicago…it’s a free Rehab for pregnant women.
