Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Columbus, MS.

Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are most commonly referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehabilitation in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any time such as while someone is already incarcerated. There are various types of facilities that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and this all depends on what is local to Columbus and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.

There are rehab facilities that work directly with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse rehab centers that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client needs or wants that a state-funded facility can't provide. The client's legal representation can propose such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even drug treatment facilities that operate out of the correctional institutions themselves, whereas clients are often in a better position for early release or other benefits when engaging in addiction treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
