Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to accept rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common with first time offenders, it can occur at any point such as while someone is being held in jail. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and this depends on which programs are available in Somerset and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work directly 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. There are also private drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers that can be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the person requires or wants that a state-funded program can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can propose such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even addiction rehab facilities that provide services from the jails and prisons themselves, whereas clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when participating in drug and alcohol treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
