Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are typically referred because they are being granted a chance to try their hand at treatment in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can be offered at any point including while someone is already incarcerated. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are local to Emerson and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are treatment programs that work exclusively with the courts to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are typically state or federally funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol treatment centers that can be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client needs or wants that a different facility can't provide. The client's legal representation can request such alternatives to the judge for approval. There are even substance abuse rehabilitation centers that provide services from the jails themselves, in which case clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when enrolling in substance abuse rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
