Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are usually referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehabilitation rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common with first time offenders, it can occur at any point such as while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are various types of facilities that offenders can be referred to, and it usually depends on what is local to Alpine and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.
There are treatment programs that work exclusively with the courts to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are typically state funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug rehabilitation facilities that might be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the person needs or wants that a state-funded program can't provide. The defendant's attorney can push for such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even substance abuse rehabilitation centers that operate out of the jails themselves, in which case clients are typically in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when enrolling in drug treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
