Outpatient Recovery Support for Mothers in Chicago

The Mothers Program focuses on the unique recovery needs of women balancing parenting responsibilities with treatment for substance use and mental health concerns.

As part of Thresholds, the program draws on decades of experience supporting individuals with serious mental illness and co-occurring disorders across the Chicago area.

Care typically combines individual and group therapy with evidence based approaches such as CBT, alongside integrated treatment for co-occurring conditions.

Sessions are designed to address underlying trauma, build coping skills and support mothers in creating healthier routines for themselves and their families.

Family-Centered, Whole-Person Care

Beyond clinical treatment, Thresholds connects clients to a broader ecosystem of behavioral health, housing, employment and recovery support services.

This wraparound model reflects the program's historical roots in family centered care and helps mothers address the practical and emotional factors that influence lasting recovery.
