Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are most commonly referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common with first time offenders, it can be offered at any point including while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and this all depends on which programs are local to Wilkes Barre and the type of issues they'll need treatment for.
There are rehab facilities that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol recovery programs that might be approved by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client needs or desires that a different facility can't fulfill. The client's attorney can request such alternatives to the judge for approval. There are even drug rehab programs that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, in which case clients are typically in a better position for early release or other leniencies when enrolling in substance abuse rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
