Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are usually referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehabilitation rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common with first time offenders, it can be offered at any point such as while someone is being held in jail. There are various types of facilities that offenders might be referred to, and this depends on which programs are local to Athens and the type of issues the person requires treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work directly with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private addiction rehabilitation facilities that may be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of recovery method that the client needs or prefers that a different program can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can request such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers that provide services from the jails themselves, in which case clients are typically in a better position for early release or other leniencies when participating in addiction treatment services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
