Women suffering from addiction face many more challenges than men. Women are less likely to seek treatment for addiction. Women are less likely to have the financial means for addiction treatment. There are fewer addiction treatment programs designed for women. Moreover, mothers with addiction often lack childcare options which would allow them to go into addiction treatment programs.

Research is also starting to show the biological impacts of gender on addiction, relapse, and recovery rates.
