Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are typically referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehab rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common with first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while the person is already incarcerated. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and this depends on which programs are attainable in Williamsport and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific type of clientele, and are typically state funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. There are also private addiction rehab centers that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person requires or prefers that a different program can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can propose such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even drug and alcohol recovery facilities that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, whereas clients are typically in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when engaging in drug and alcohol treatment services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
