Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to accept rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any time including while the person is already incarcerated. There are various types of facilities that offenders can be referred to, and this all depends on what is attainable in Fort Myers and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work directly with the courts to administer to this specific group of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug rehab centers that may be approved by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client requires or desires that a different facility can't provide. The defendant's attorney can present such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even addiction recovery programs that provide services from the jails themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for early release or other leniencies when enrolling in addiction treatment services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
