Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Bristol, ME.

Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are most commonly referred because they are being granted a chance to receive rehab in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common among first time offenders, it can be offered at any point such as while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are various types of rehab programs that offenders can be referred to, and this depends on what is local to Bristol and the type of issues the person requires treatment for.

There are programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit type of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug recovery facilities that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client needs or desires that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can present such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even substance abuse rehab centers that provide services from the correctional institutions themselves, in which case clients are typically in a better position for early release or other leniencies when enrolling in substance abuse rehabilitation services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
