One-Year Support for ReNew Program
About ReNew
The Recovering Mothers with Newborns (ReNew) Program supports expectant mothers battling substance use disorders. They provide a tailored support system during the critical first year of an infant’s life, offering guidance, counseling, and emotional support. Their holistic approach encompasses mental, emotional, and physical health, with access to counseling services, support groups, and wellness programs. Renew collaborates with community resources, ensuring mothers have access to necessary services. Additionally, they equip mothers with parenting practices that foster healthy attachment and bonding.
This program has witnessed remarkable transformations, with mothers overcoming addiction and becoming confident, loving caregivers.
