About Prototypes Women’s Center
Prototypes Women’s Center provides essential detoxification services in Pomona, California. They provide safety and shelter for those in need while emphasizing the promotion of self sufficiency. They have specialized tracks for African American women and Latinas. Programs are available for adults, kids, and teens.
The organization was founded in 1986 with the goal of revolutionizing treatment for women and their children by Vivian Brown and Maryann Fraser. They continue to offer a lifeline to women who are struggling with addiction and severe problems like mental illness and domestic abuse. They offer their programs at the clinic or can come to your school, home, or office.
Many of the women they serve are mothers who must make the painful choice of either placing their kids in foster care or letting them continue to struggle. Residential and outpatient treatment for substance use disorders, prevention and education, job training and parenting support are just a few of the services provided by their team of committed professionals.
In order to promote stability and rehabilitation, they offer parenting education and life skills classes. These programs can accommodate women who want to include their children in treatment as well as those who prefer to enter treatment alone. Specialized programs include massages for infants, parenting classes, and legal advocacy for juveniles under court orders.
Their clinical interventions and therapeutic setting which are based on evidence-based practices like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) are customized to accommodate the various needs of participants.
