Info

While the Kairos Women and Children Specialty program opened in 2005, it should be noted that Kairos has provided residential treatment services to pregnant and post-partum women at our Fayette Street Campus since 1998. Due to the freedom of choice available to Medicaid and Block Grant funded consumers, many women who qualified for Women and Children services have requested substance abuse treatment at Kairos based on our reputation as a quality treatment agency. Kairos has also met the needs of pregnant and post-partum adolescents at our Family Care Center in Bridgeport . Our Teen Parent Program meets the treatment needs of adjudicated youth and their children. at our Family Care Center in Bridgeport . The teen mothers come to the program pregnant or post-partum. The mothers and children then remain in treatment at Kairos for up to one year. Kairos is experienced and professionally prepared to care for the children of adult mothers based on our experience in providing services to the children of our teen mothers. We are aware of the needs of the children in this population and our nursery/day care operations could easily be expanded to accommodate the children of adult patients. Agreements are in place with medical facilities and other community agencies to provide services to the children of our patients.
