The program provides a homelike setting with extensive support and supervision. While in the program, women build their skills and confidence to become self-sufficient, including achieving employment, further education and independent housing. The program specifically prioritizes pregnant woman and women with young children. A major objective is to assist women to maintain healthy, drug-free pregnancy, to give birth to a healthy baby, and to establish a positive mother-infant bond. Reuniting families is also a priority, and the program provides parenting education, childcare, and families counseling to repair relationships that have been damaged by past addiction. In 2000 Maryhaven was selected by the Franklin County ADAMH Board to operate the Women’s Africentric Program. While similar to the original Women’s Extended Care Program, the Africentric program is specifically geared toward women of color who are in recovery from alcohol/drug addiction. The program takes a holistic (mind, body, and spirit) approach incorporating the African principles of Nguza Saba and Africentric treatment modalities. The program is unique in serving the needs of women of color by addressing the issues of addiction, racism, sexism, and poverty. The Stable Cradle Program provides prenatal and postpartum support services in an effort to increase the number of healthy babies born in our community and reduce infant mortality rates. Stable Cradle provides collaborative addiction recovery services for the Ohio State University Medical Center's A.P.S.A. (Aid to Pregnant Substance Abusers) Clinic and other community prenatal care facilities. Stable Cradle MOMS (Mentoring our Mothers Successfully) trains lay health advocates to provide support for pregnant women and parents of infants in their community. Copyright © 2005 Maryhaven.
