Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Patten, ME.

Clients referred from the court for drug treatment are most commonly referred because they are being granted a chance to accept rehabilitation rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can be offered at any time including while the person is being held in jail. There are different types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and it usually depends on what is local to Patten and the type of issues they'll need treatment for.

There are treatment programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug treatment centers that may be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client requires or desires that a different facility can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can push for such alternatives to the judge for approval. There are even substance abuse rehabilitation centers that provide services from the jails themselves, in which case clients are typically in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when participating in substance abuse treatment services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
