Clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are typically referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common with first time offenders, it can occur at any point including while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are different types of programs that offenders might be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are available in Jersey City and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.
There are rehab facilities that work primarily with the courts to treat this explicit type of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private addiction treatment programs that may be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the client requires or wants that a different facility can't provide. The client's attorney can propose such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even addiction recovery centers that provide services from the jails and prisons themselves, where clients are typically in a better position for early release or other benefits when enrolling in addiction rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
