Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to receive rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and it usually depends on what is attainable in Lakeland and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol rehab facilities that may be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person needs or prefers that a different program can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can request such alternatives to the judge for approval. There are even addiction treatment programs that operate out of the jails themselves, where clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when participating in drug and alcohol rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
