Specialized Women Services (SWS) is a program designed to meet the unique needs of women seeking support and growth. Our services, guided by DHS/OSAMH Licensure Standards for Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Treatment Programs, go beyond general requirements to address the specific challenges faced by parenting mothers.

We offer a comprehensive range of services to empower women on their journey to independence. From job skills training and therapeutic services to daycare, parenting classes, care coordination, and aftercare planning, our program is designed to support your holistic well-being.

We understand the importance of catering to the needs of both mothers and their children. Admission into one of Arkansas’ licensed drug and alcohol SWS treatment centers is open to women with two children under the age of seven.

Join us at SWS, where we are committed to providing a supportive environment for personal and familial growth. Your journey to a brighter future begins here.
