Clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are usually referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at treatment instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common with first time offenders, it can be offered at any time such as while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are different types of programs that offenders may be referred to, and this depends on what is attainable in South Lake Tahoe and the type of issues the person requires treatment for.
There are programs that work primarily with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are typically state or federally funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug recovery centers that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client needs or desires that a different program can't provide. The client's legal representation can request such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even substance abuse recovery facilities that operate out of the correctional institutions themselves, whereas clients are often in a better position for early release or other leniencies when participating in substance abuse treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
