Clients referred from the court for drug treatment are typically referred because they are being granted a chance to accept rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common among first time offenders, it can be offered at any time including while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of facilities that offenders may be referred to, and this all depends on which programs are available in Richmond and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are usually state funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private addiction rehabilitation programs that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client needs or prefers that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can push for such options to the judge for approval. There are even drug treatment facilities that operate out of the jails themselves, in which case clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when enrolling in drug rehab services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
