Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to try their hand at rehabilitation rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while the person is being held in jail. There are various types of programs that offenders may be referred to, and this all depends on which programs are local to St. Augustine Beach and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are treatment programs that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to treat this explicit type of clientele, and are typically state or federally funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs that may be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client requires or prefers that a different facility can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can request such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even drug rehab facilities that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, where clients are often in a better position for early release or other benefits when participating in drug and alcohol rehab services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
