Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are typically referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any time including while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of rehab programs that offenders can be referred to, and this depends on which programs are local to Walker and the type of issues they'll need treatment for.
There are treatment programs that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are typically state funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol treatment programs that might be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the client requires or desires that a different facility can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can push for such options to the judge for approval. There are even addiction treatment programs that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, whereas clients are typically in a better position for early release or other leniencies when participating in drug and alcohol rehab services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
