Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are most commonly referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehabilitation in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can happen at any time including while someone is being held in jail. There are different types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are available in New Castle and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.
There are rehab facilities that work directly with the courts to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers that can be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the person requires or wants that a state-funded program can't provide. The defendant's attorney can present such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug and alcohol treatment programs that provide services from the jails and prisons themselves, where clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when enrolling in substance abuse treatment services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
