About Area Substance Abuse Council
Heart of Iowa is a residential facility operated by the Area Substance Abuse Council (ASAC) and caters to individuals throughout Iowa. This program specifically targets pregnant women and mothers with children who are seeking help for substance use disorders. Participants have the opportunity to bring their kids along, allowing them to pursue treatment while also receiving support in their parenting responsibilities. The program includes individual counseling sessions and group activities that enable participants to develop sober living practices and essential life skills.
To qualify for this program, individuals must undergo an assessment that demonstrates the necessity for residential treatment. They can either submit this documentation directly to ASAC or arrange for an assessment through the council. While there is typically a waitlist for this service, the ASAC treatment team is dedicated to ensuring that everyone receives timely access to the appropriate level of care. Once admitted, residents are encouraged to establish personal goals, actively engage in group sessions, and adhere to the established program guidelines.
