Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Alfred, ME.

Clients referred from the court for substance abuse rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being granted a chance to receive rehabilitation in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common among first time offenders, it can occur at any point including while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of programs that offenders can be referred to, and this depends on what is local to Alfred and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.

There are programs that work primarily with the courts 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. Additionally, there are also private substance abuse treatment programs that might be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person needs or wants that a different program can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can present such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even addiction rehabilitation programs that provide services from the jails themselves, whereas clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when engaging in addiction rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
