Clients referred from the court for drug treatment are usually referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at treatment instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while the person is being held in jail. There are various types of rehab programs that offenders can be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are local to Melbourne and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are typically state or federally funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug rehabilitation programs that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the person requires or wants that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can request such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug and alcohol treatment centers that provide services from the jails themselves, whereas clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when participating in addiction rehabilitation services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
