Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehabilitation in lieu of 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 rehab programs that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are attainable in Lindsay and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.
There are programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse rehab programs that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the client needs or wants that a state-funded program can't fulfill. The client's legal representation can present such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even addiction rehabilitation programs that operate out of the jails themselves, in which case clients are sometimes in a better position for early release or other benefits when participating in substance abuse rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
