Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are most commonly referred because they are being granted a chance to receive rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can be offered at any time such as while someone is already incarcerated. There are different types of programs that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and this all depends on which programs are local to Lawrence and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are programs that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug recovery programs that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client 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 rehabilitation facilities that operate out of the jails themselves, where clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when participating in addiction rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
