Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to accept rehabilitation rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can be offered at any time such as while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of facilities that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and this depends on what is available in Boaz and the type of issues they'll need treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work directly with the courts to treat this explicit type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol recovery facilities that can be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of recovery method that the client needs or desires that a different program can't provide. The client's attorney can propose such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug treatment facilities that operate out of the correctional facilities themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for early release or other leniencies when engaging in substance abuse treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
