Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are typically referred because they are being given a chance to accept treatment rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can occur at any time such as while the defendant is being held in jail. There are different types of programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and it usually depends on what is available in Bristol and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work exclusively with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug rehabilitation centers that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of recovery method that the client requires or wants that a different program can't provide. The client's attorney can present such alternatives to the judge for approval. There are even drug and alcohol recovery facilities that operate out of the correctional institutions themselves, where clients are sometimes in a better position for early release or other leniencies when participating in drug and alcohol treatment services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
