Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to accept treatment in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are various types of programs that offenders might be referred to, and this depends on what is available in St. Cloud 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 group of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse rehabilitation facilities that might be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the person requires or desires that a different program can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can propose such options to the judge for permission. There are even drug and alcohol rehab centers that provide services from the correctional institutions themselves, whereas clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when engaging in drug treatment services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
