Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Shawmut, ME.

Clients referred from the court for substance abuse rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehabilitation in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common with first time offenders, it can be offered at any time including while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and this all depends on what is attainable in Shawmut and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.

There are treatment programs that work primarily with the courts to treat this specific group 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 addiction rehab centers that can be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the person requires or prefers that a different program can't provide. The client's legal representation can propose such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug and alcohol treatment programs that provide services from the correctional institutions themselves, where clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when enrolling in drug rehabilitation services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
