Transforming lives since 1971, Nexus Family Recovery Center provides comprehensive services, specializing in substance use disorder treatment and trauma-informed care for women and their children. We inspire hope, offer respect, and honor unique differences, fostering health and resilience for all.
ADULT WOMEN (AW)
Nexus Family Recovery Center’s Adult Women (AW) program serves women ages 18 and older who are not actively parenting during their treatment. While in residential treatment, clients’ calendars are filled with individual counseling, educational sessions, and group therapy sessions.
Our AW clients engage in various activities that target the root of their substance use disorder (SUD). The goal is to treat their symptoms as they continue to develop life skills and foster a supportive community of people in recovery.
PREGNANT AND PARENTING WOMEN WITH CHILDREN PROGRAM (PPWC)
The Pregnant & Parenting Women with Children (PPWC) program provides residential treatment to adult women in all stages of pregnancy and mothers with up to three children ages 0-12. Nexus is one of a few residential treatment facilities in Texas that invites women to bring their children to treatment.
Each PPWC client receives a comprehensive treatment plan with parenting and education classes, postpartum support, and family education sessions. Alongside a team of licensed counselors, a child and family education specialist, a case manager, and recovery coaches, clients follow a full schedule of activities to support their individualized recovery journey.
Michelle: "I could not take care of a child...at all. I hated myself and could not raise a child with a mother like me because he just doesn't deserve that...so I came to Nexus. Nexus loved me until I could love myself. I felt so safe. It completely transformed my life. Everything that I know - my worth, value, and life worth in general, I learned from Nexus. Nexus taught me how to live."
THE CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER (CDC)
Nexus’ Child Development Center (CDC) is a fully-licensed Texas Rising Star childcare center serving infants through school-aged children so mothers in treatment can focus on their recovery. The CDC offers speech therapy and occupational therapy for children in our residential programs.
After group sessions are done for the day, children in our PPWC program return to their mothers for the night, so they can heal and grow together as a family. In addition to the children of our residential clients, the CDC is also open to outpatient clients, staff, as well as the community as a whole.
RECOVERY SUPPORT SERVICES (RSS)
Recovery Support Services (RSS) offers experience, strength, and hope to women in recovery. Our certified Peer Specialists, many of whom are Nexus alums, help provide creative solutions, practical guidance, and education as well as employment and housing assistance to women in long-term recovery.
Using personal lived experience to connect with outpatients, Nexus’ Peer Specialists extend the reach of treatment beyond the clinical setting into the everyday environment of those seeking a successful, sustained recovery.
We serve as a community of hope and recovery for all women and their families who strive to live healthy, resilient lives.
Substance Use treatment programs are lifelines for individuals battling substance use disorder (SUD), offering hope, healing, and a chance at a brighter future. However, these vital programs require significant financial support to continue saving lives and rebuilding communities.
