Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Berkeley Heights, NJ.

Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehabilitation rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common among first time offenders, it can occur at any point including while the defendant is being held in jail. There are different types of facilities that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and this depends on what is local to Berkeley Heights and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.

There are treatment programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse rehab facilities that may be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the client requires or prefers that a state-funded program can't fulfill. The client's legal representation can request such options to the judge for permission. There are even drug treatment centers that operate out of the jails themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when engaging in substance abuse treatment services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
