Treatment clients referred from the court for drug treatment are usually referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehabilitation rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any time including while the defendant is being held in jail. There are different types of facilities that offenders might be referred to, and it usually depends on what is available in State College and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private addiction rehab programs that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the person requires or wants that a state-funded program can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can propose such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug rehab centers that operate out of the jails themselves, in which case clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when engaging in addiction rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
