Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Jefferson, AL.

Clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are typically referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehabilitation rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can happen at any point such as while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of facilities that offenders might be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are local to Jefferson and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.

There are recovery programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific group of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private addiction treatment programs that may be approved by the court if there is a specific type of recovery method that the client requires or wants that a state-funded program can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can push for such options to the judge for permission. There are even drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities that operate out of the jails themselves, whereas clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when engaging in drug and alcohol rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
