Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Squirrel Island, ME.

Treatment clients referred from the court for drug treatment are most commonly referred because they are being granted a chance to accept rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any time such as while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are different types of facilities that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are available in Squirrel Island and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.

There are programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to treat this explicit type of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private addiction rehabilitation centers that may be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client requires or desires that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The client's legal representation can request such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even addiction rehab facilities that provide services from the jails and prisons themselves, where clients are typically in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when engaging in substance abuse treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
