Family Links is a comprehensive substance abuse treatment facility located in Pittsburgh, PA, dedicated to serving women and families navigating addiction recovery. The facility stands apart by offering integrated health and substance abuse services in a residential setting, recognizing that recovery is most effective when the whole family is supported. Situated at 843 Climax Way in Pittsburgh, Family Links provides a compassionate environment where women can heal while their children receive proper care during treatment.
Family Links offers residential long-term treatment programs lasting 30 days or more, which research shows significantly improves recovery outcomes by providing structured support, therapy, and medical care in a stable environment. The facility specializes in women's treatment programs that address gender-specific needs, trauma, and co-occurring health conditions that often accompany substance abuse. A distinctive feature is the availability of residential beds for children of clients, eliminating a major barrier to treatment—the fear of losing custody or being separated from dependents during recovery. This family-centered approach allows mothers and caregivers to maintain meaningful connections with their children while focusing on sobriety and wellness.
Family Links accepts Medicaid and Medicare, ensuring that cost is not a barrier to accessing quality care. Insurance coverage for addiction treatment is protected under the Mental Health Parity Act, which requires most insurance plans to cover substance abuse treatment with the same benefits as other medical conditions. If you have questions about your specific coverage or need help verifying benefits, the admissions team can guide you through the process at no cost.
