Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Stonington, ME.

Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to try their hand at rehabilitation in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any time such as while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of rehab programs that offenders can be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are available in Stonington and the type of issues they'll need treatment for.

There are recovery programs that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug rehabilitation facilities that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person needs or wants that a state-funded program can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can push for such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even substance abuse rehabilitation programs that operate out of the correctional institutions themselves, where clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when engaging in drug rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
