Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - South Richmond Hill, NY.

Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being given a chance to accept treatment instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common among first time offenders, it can happen at any point such as while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are various types of facilities that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and this depends on which programs are available in South Richmond Hill and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.

There are recovery programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually state funded or are available at little or no 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 person needs or desires that a state-funded program can't fulfill. The client's attorney can push for such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even substance abuse treatment facilities that provide services from the jails themselves, whereas clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when participating in drug rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
