About Pike County Jail
WestCare provides addiction and mental health services to the inmates at Pike County Jail in Pikeville, Kentucky. Providing drug treatment to incarcerated men and women like this can address treatment needs before release and make for a smooth transition and a fresh start on life upon release. Programs like these play an important role in the criminal rehabilitation process, as jails often don’t have full fledged treatment options available.
Addressing Criminal Behaviors
One thing else I appreciate about jail addiction programs like these is that they often look at the bigger picture and address negative behaviors as a whole. Tackling substance abuse is one part of that, but the end goal of such programs is to help clients reshape their behaviors so that they make better choices and don’t reoffend. It’s a big boon when you consider the link between substance misuse and criminal behaviors.
Gender Specific Programs
These treatment programs are divided between men and women, and the reasons for doing so go beyond the practical. By addressing men and women in separate programs, therapists and other members of your care team can better incorporate gender specific issues as they relate to substance use disorder.
I think this focus is important because we don’t always recognize how men and women experience addiction and recovery differently, but these programs do.
