Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Erie, PA.

Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are most commonly referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at rehab in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can be offered at any point such as while someone is being held in jail. There are various types of facilities that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are available in Erie and the type of issues the person requires treatment for.

There are rehab facilities that work exclusively with the courts to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug treatment programs that may be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client requires or prefers that a different facility can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can present such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even addiction recovery programs that provide services from the correctional facilities themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when enrolling in drug and alcohol treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
