Lake Geauga Recovery Centers Inc - Womens Residential Treatment Nevaeh

A Women-Only Residential Program for Pregnancy and Early Parenting

Nevaeh Ridge is designed specifically for pregnant women and mothers with dependent children age 5 and under who need residential substance use treatment. On-site childcare is central to the program, helping mothers stay engaged in care while keeping their children close in a setting built for family stability.

Family-Centered Care with Childcare and Parenting Coaching

Parents can participate in treatment programming while trained staff provide childcare on site. Daily routines also create space for coached parenting, where mothers can share meals and time with their children during breaks, then take responsibility for their child’s care after the treatment day, with guidance focused on healthy, effective parenting skills. Prenatal care support is also available.

Therapy and Co-Occurring Support in One Setting

Treatment includes individual counseling and intensive group therapy, with services for co-occurring mental health and substance use needs. The program also offers trauma-related counseling and relapse prevention support. Nevaeh Ridge reports support for medications for addiction treatment (MAT), including options for opioid and alcohol use disorder, and can accept clients who are already receiving MAT through an outside prescriber.

Home-Like Amenities That Support Routine and Connection

The residence is set up to feel like a shared home, with furnished shared bedrooms that can accommodate infants and young children, a dedicated nursery and playroom, and communal dining that reinforces daily structure. Common areas include comfortable living rooms and a lounge with a television, along with quiet spaces for reading or conversation. Outdoors, the landscaped exterior and calm neighborhood setting help create a steadier day-to-day environment.

Community Access, Practical Skills, and Transition Planning

The program’s location offers access to public transportation and nearby community resources such as stores, social service agencies, churches, the YMCA, and community 12-step meetings. Nevaeh Ridge also offers independent living skills, vocational training, workforce preparation, transportation assistance, and smoking cessation support. Discharge planning, naloxone and overdose education, and follow-up after discharge help support next steps after residential care.
