These kids have never done drugs. They’re still being treated for addiction.

Years into Victoria Richardson’s addiction, every choice was rooted in how to continue using drugs. Until this one. “I was five months pregnant with my son and using heroin, and I knew I couldn’t do that anymore,” she said. “I knew I had to change so my kids wouldn’t grow up the same way I did.” A counselor pointed her to a special treatment center for pregnant women and mothers, a homelike environment where everyone stays together and learns or relearns how to be a family.
