Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Sylmar, CA.

Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are typically referred because they are being granted a chance to accept rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any time such as while the person is being held in jail. There are different types of programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and it usually depends on what is available in Sylmar and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.

There are programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific group of clientele, and are typically state or federally funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse rehab programs that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client needs or prefers that a different facility can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can push for such options to the judge for approval. There are even drug rehab facilities that provide services from the jails and prisons themselves, where clients are sometimes in a better position for early release or other leniencies when enrolling in substance abuse rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
