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

Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are typically referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any point including while someone is already incarcerated. There are different types of facilities that offenders can be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are available in Petersburg and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.

There are recovery programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug rehabilitation programs that might be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client requires or desires that a different facility can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can push for such options to the judge for approval. There are even substance abuse recovery programs that operate out of the correctional facilities themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when engaging in drug and alcohol treatment services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
