ARC Milwaukee Women's Program is a specialized residential treatment facility dedicated to serving women aged 18 and older who are navigating substance use disorders. Since opening its doors in 2014, this program has become an important resource in Milwaukee, providing structured support to women who have been referred by the Wisconsin Department of Corrections. Participation in the program is specifically coordinated through referrals from Probation and Parole Agents, ensuring that every resident is directed toward the support they need at a pivotal time in their recovery journey.
The program is designed to be a safe and supportive environment where women can focus on their recovery without the burden of financial cost, as there are no fees charged to participants. This approach is made possible through primary funding from the Wisconsin Department of Corrections, which underscores a strong commitment to rehabilitation and positive reentry outcomes. The facility operates as both a community-based residential facility and is certified specifically for providing treatment to those with substance use disorders, ensuring a comprehensive and specialized level of care.
At ARC Milwaukee Women’s Program, the focus is on helping residents build a foundation for lasting recovery, personal growth, and life skills development. The structured residential environment fosters a sense of community among participants, allowing women to support each other and work through shared experiences. Through its dedicated staff and targeted programming, ARC Milwaukee Women’s Program plays a vital role in helping women regain autonomy, restore relationships, and move forward on a healthier path.
