Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Northfield, MA.

Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are typically referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehabilitation in lieu 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 the defendant is being held in jail. There are different types of facilities that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and it usually depends on what is attainable in Northfield and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.

There are treatment programs that work directly with the courts to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are typically state or federally funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers that might be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person needs or wants that a state-funded program can't provide. The defendant's attorney can present such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even addiction treatment facilities that provide services from the correctional facilities themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for early release or other leniencies when enrolling in drug rehab services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
