Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at treatment rather than face 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 programs that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and this depends on which programs are available in Georgetown and the type of issues they'll need treatment for.
There are programs that work directly with the courts to administer to this specific group of clientele, and are typically state funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug treatment facilities that may be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the client needs or desires that a state-funded facility can't provide. The defendant's attorney can present such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even drug treatment centers that provide services from the jails themselves, whereas clients are typically in a better position for early release or other benefits when enrolling in addiction treatment services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
