The Women & Children's Center is a freestanding residential facility located in a peaceful park-like setting. The Women & Children's Center specializes in providing substance abuse and addiction treatment to pregnant women and women with children. The Women & Children's Center is a sanctuary... a place where women feel safe, full of hope, value themselves, and confidently parent their children.
Women & Children's Center offers:
- Medical needs
- Behavioral needs

- Promotes 12-step program participation
- Re-establishing healthy family relationships & family values

Since substance abuse and addiction are almost always accompanied by emotional or psychiatric problems, particular attention is placed on teaching women how to deal with daily stresses without drugs or alcohol. Dual diagnosis issues, such as addictions complicated by major depression, are also addressed as necessary.
Helping Children
Most of the children that come though our doors have never even seen a doctor, let alone a therapist. Their medical needs are met at our facility, and we have done our best to provide a stable, emotionally nurturing environment for the children in our care. Our experience has led us to recognize the unmet behavioral and emotional needs of many of these children, needs that require specific therapeutic interventions if we hope to intervene in the cycle of addiction. Now is the time to help them, before the behavioral problems of childhood become an ingrained life-pattern.
Children's Services:
- Development screening
- Psychiatric services
- Access to professional medical care
- Emotionally nurturing and structed envrionment
- Developmentally stimulating activities
- Family therapy
- Access to public school
Professionally Trained Staff
Jackson Recovery Centers provides a professionally trained multi-disciplinary team consisting of a program director, registered nurses, mid-level psychiatric practitioners, and therapy staff. This team works closely with physicians, psychology staff, dietitians and other resources to ensure the best possible treatment for the mother and her children.
Life After Treatment
Upon completion of residential treatment, we offer outpatient services to women who reside in Sioux City at this facility. We tailor our services to meet the individual needs of each patient.
Jackson Recovery can help women break free from the destructive nature of addiction. At Jackson, education is the key, prevention is the goal, and recovery is the process. This process enhances personal, emotional, physical and spiritual growth.
