Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at treatment in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common among first time offenders, it can occur at any time including while the person is already incarcerated. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are attainable in Astoria and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work exclusively with the courts to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are usually state funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private substance abuse rehabilitation programs that might be approved by the court if there is a specific type of recovery method that the person needs or wants that a state-funded program can't provide. The client's attorney can push for such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even substance abuse rehab centers that provide services from the correctional institutions themselves, in which case clients are typically in a better position for early release or other benefits when participating in drug and alcohol rehab services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
