Clients referred from the court for drug rehabilitation are most commonly referred because they are being granted a chance to try their hand at rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can happen at any time including while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are various types of programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and it usually depends on what is attainable in Santa Maria and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are rehab facilities that work primarily with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse treatment programs that can be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the client needs or wants that a different facility can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can present such options to the judge for approval. There are even drug treatment programs that operate out of the jails themselves, where clients are often in a better position for early release or other leniencies when engaging in drug and alcohol rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
