Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to accept treatment instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can happen at any time including while someone is being held in jail. There are various types of programs that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are local to Edwards and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.
There are treatment programs that work exclusively with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private substance abuse recovery facilities that might be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client needs or prefers that a different program can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can push for such alternatives to the judge for approval. There are even addiction treatment facilities that operate out of the jails themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for early release or other benefits when engaging in substance abuse rehab services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
