Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are typically referred because they are being granted a chance to receive rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common among first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while someone is already incarcerated. There are various types of facilities that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are available in Columbia and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are treatment programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private drug and alcohol treatment programs that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client requires or prefers that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can propose such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even addiction rehab centers that provide services from the correctional facilities themselves, where clients are typically in a better position for early release or other benefits when engaging in drug treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
