Clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are most commonly referred because they are being given a chance to receive treatment rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common among first time offenders, it can occur at any point including while someone is already incarcerated. There are various types of facilities that offenders may be referred to, and it usually all depends on what is attainable in Afton and the type of issues the person requires treatment for.
There are treatment programs that work directly with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol recovery centers that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person 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 drug and alcohol recovery centers that provide services from the correctional facilities themselves, where clients are typically in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when participating in substance abuse rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
