Clients referred from the court for drug treatment are usually referred because they are being given a chance to receive treatment instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common among first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while someone is being held in jail. There are various types of facilities that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and it usually all depends on what is available in East Carondelet and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.
There are programs that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific group of clientele, and are typically state or federally funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private drug and alcohol treatment programs that may be approved by the court if there is a specific type of recovery method that the person requires or wants that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can request such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug treatment centers that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, where clients are sometimes in a better position for early release or other benefits when participating in drug rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
