I am looking into this for my ex daughter in law. She has family there in Parkersburg. She has had an ongoing drug issue for years I believe, I think she has finally hit rock bottom and is ready to get help for real. She would need extensive mental counseling as she was molested by her Grandfather as a young child and didn't receive assistance when she reached out to her Mother, The Grandfather's daughter, She was put on riddalin as a young child and has been on pills every since sometimes dabbling in other drugs such as heroine. My son and I tried to help her as have her Father who was an alcoholic when she was growing up but is now sober, a christian, happily married and raising his (her) granddaughter. Rehab has been attempted many times with her always leaving. She did the same to us. But now she is basically on the streets. She has no one. My son still loves her but she has put him through too much at this point. He is willing to pay for one month to give her a start. So my questions are, How does she get in? How much is it? What are the qualifications she has to meet to even be considered?
