Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Columbia, LA.

Clients referred from the court for drug rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehab in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any point including while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are different types of facilities that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and this depends on what is available in Columbia and the type of issues they'll need treatment for.

There are rehab facilities that work directly with the courts to treat this explicit group of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug rehab facilities that might be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client needs or prefers that a state-funded facility can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can propose such options to the judge for approval. There are even addiction rehab programs that provide services from the correctional facilities themselves, where clients are often in a better position for early release or other benefits when participating in drug and alcohol treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
