Maryville Academy Mother’s Recovery Home Network

The Maryville Academy Mother’s Recovery Home Network is comprised of two Maryville recovery programs: Saint Monica Homes located in the West Town neighborhood of Chicago. It is a residence for up to 18 women between the ages of 18 and 35 and their children up to age 10. Saint Josephine Bakhita Homes, located in the Austin neighborhood of Chicago, can follow Saint Monica Homes where mothers and their children experience a less restrictive home setting. The goal at Saint Josephine Bakhita Homes is to allow mothers to focus on gaining independence and putting into practice the life skills they have learned.

Women admitted to the programs will receive individual and group treatment designed to help examine their mental health, emotional, medical, neurobiological and socioeconomic conditions. Once an assessment is completed by a Maryville Family Behavioral Health Clinic staff, specific treatment plans will be assigned to address the unique needs of each woman. The program is designed to last six months at Saint Monica Homes. During that time, the mothers will have the opportunity to engage with a parenting coach and participate in classes. A vocational coordinator will work with each mother in a workforce development program and provide job-readiness training. Substance abuse treatment and mental health therapeutic services will be offered through the Family Behavioral Health Clinic.
