Life Sciences & Biomedicine Psychiatry Psychology Psychology, Clinical Science & Technology Social Sciences Substance Abuse
The present study used a process evaluation to explore a women-specific program that addresses the complex treatment needs of pregnant and postpartum women (PPW) with substance use disorders (SUDs). Data was collected from program participants (N = 29), the primary treatment center, key partners (N = 7), and representatives from community stakeholders (N = 11). Successes and challenges of implementing a program for PPW with SUDs were determined. Results indicated successes among initial planning stages, client satisfaction, and stakeholder collaboration, while challenges to service delivery and larger system collaboration are discussed.
