Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Hamden, CT.

Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being given a chance to receive treatment instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can happen at any time including while the person is already incarcerated. There are different types of programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are available in Hamden and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.

There are recovery programs that work directly with the courts to treat 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 substance abuse treatment programs that might be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the person requires or prefers that a state-funded program can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can push for such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even addiction treatment centers that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, in which case clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when engaging in drug and alcohol treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
