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

Treatment clients referred from the court for drug treatment are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to try their hand at rehab rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common with first time offenders, it can occur at any point including while the person is being held in jail. There are different types of facilities that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and this depends on what is local to Starkville and the type of issues the person requires treatment for.

There are treatment programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse treatment programs that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the person needs or desires that a different program can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can present such alternatives to the judge for approval. There are even drug recovery programs that provide services from the correctional institutions themselves, whereas clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when enrolling in substance abuse rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
