Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - San Carlos, CA.

Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are different types of programs that offenders can be referred to, and this depends on what is available in San Carlos and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.

There are rehab facilities that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to treat this explicit group 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 drug and alcohol treatment programs that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the person needs or wants that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can request such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even drug rehabilitation facilities that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, in which case clients are typically in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when participating in drug treatment services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
