Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Iowa City, IA.

Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at rehab in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common among first time offenders, it can occur at any point such as while the person is already incarcerated. There are different types of facilities that offenders can be referred to, and this all depends on which programs are available in Iowa City and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.

There are recovery programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to treat this explicit type of clientele, and are typically state funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private substance abuse rehabilitation facilities that may be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client needs or wants that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The client's attorney can present such options to the judge for permission. There are even substance abuse rehab programs that provide services from the correctional facilities themselves, where clients are sometimes in a better position for early release or other leniencies when participating in drug and alcohol rehabilitation services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
