Clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are typically referred because they are being given 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 happen at any point such as while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are different types of rehab programs that offenders can be referred to, and this all depends on which programs are local to Sanford and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.
There are programs that work exclusively with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually state funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private addiction rehab facilities that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person needs or wants that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can present such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even drug recovery facilities that operate out of the correctional institutions themselves, where clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when engaging in addiction treatment services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
