About McCambridge Center

Compass Health Network McCambridge Women and Childrens Treatment Center in Columbia, Missouri is a nonprofit behavioral health organization. This particular facility specializes in treating women aged 18 and older who are struggling with substance use disorder (SUD) and addiction. Care is also available to pregnant individuals and parents.

Founded in 1978, the center was founded by Academy Award-winning actress, Mercedes McCambridge. She was a recovering alcoholic and spokesperson for SUD treatment. Her legacy lives on in the many lives that have been changed as a direct result of this facility.

The center’s compassionate and dedicated multidisciplinary team helps pregnant individuals in accessing prenatal obstetrical care, and helps prepare them for the impending birth of their children. They do this by connecting them with community resources and support systems, and teaching them skills to better manage their substance use. Pregnant individuals can also access educational support that covers topics like nutrition and parenting classes.

Support here is offered on a residential and outpatient basis, and features medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and withdrawal management (WM) services. These integrate the use of FDA-approved meds with therapy sessions for a rounded, holistic approach to recovery. MAT has been shown not only to improve treatment retention, but also improve birth outcomes for perinatal addicts, while offering additional support to pregnant individuals. Clients are empowered to decide whether they want to engage in MAT short or long-term, and can be assisted in weaning when they decide to complete their course.

The center features full-time nursing staff to support clients in addressing their medical and mental health needs. Individual and group therapy are also offered, alongside community support and case management services. If you’re able to head out for excursions to clear your mind, Hominy Creek Trail and Woodridge Park aren’t too far away.

This center also allows women to bring children under the age of 12 to stay with them while in residential care. Staff can offer support daycare and schooling arrangements.
