About the MIST Program

The Maternal Infant Substance Treatment (MIST) Program is a 16-bed residential treatment program designed specifically for pregnant and parenting women struggling with substance use disorders.

Women admitted to the program typically remain in treatment for 6-12 months and receive comprehensive support services, including:

Substance use disorder and mental health treatment
Individual, group, and family counseling
Case management services
Medical care coordination with community healthcare providers
Parenting, life skills, and domestic violence education
Educational and vocational assistance
Childcare support
Housing and community resource referrals

One of the most meaningful aspects of MIST is that infants remain with their mothers during treatment, allowing for critical bonding and attachment while mothers focus on recovery, healing, and building a healthy future for their families.

Maintain accurate, timely, and compliant clinical documentation in accordance with agency standards and professional best practices.
Manage a caseload of up to 16 clients while monitoring progress toward treatment goals and objectives.
Advocate for clients and assist with connecting them to community resources and supportive services.
Support program operations through participation in case management activities, transportation support, infant care responsibilities, and milieu coverage as needed.
Meet productivity expectations and maintain effective communication with the Program Director regarding client progress and program needs.
Respond promptly to phone calls, emails, and other professional communications.
