Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Jefferson, NY.

Clients referred from the court for substance abuse rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehabilitation in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can be offered at any time including while someone is already incarcerated. There are different types of facilities that offenders can be referred to, and it usually depends on what is local to Jefferson and the type of issues they'll need treatment for.

There are programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to treat this explicit type of clientele, and are typically state funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private substance abuse treatment facilities that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client needs or wants that a different facility can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can request such options to the judge for permission. There are even drug and alcohol rehab programs that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, whereas clients are often in a better position for early release or other leniencies when participating in drug and alcohol rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
