Clients referred from the court for drug rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being granted a chance to accept treatment in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can happen at any point such as while the person is being held in jail. There are various types of facilities that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and it usually all depends on what is local to Latham and the type of issues the person requires treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work exclusively with the courts to treat this specific group of clientele, and are usually state funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private addiction rehabilitation centers that may be approved by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the person requires or prefers that a state-funded program can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can propose such options to the judge for approval. There are even substance abuse rehabilitation programs that provide services from the jails themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for early release or other benefits when participating in addiction rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
