Clients referred from the court for drug treatment are most commonly referred because they are being granted a chance to receive treatment in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can be offered at any point such as while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are various types of facilities that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are attainable in Topsham and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific group of clientele, and are usually state funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug rehabilitation facilities that may be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person needs or prefers that a state-funded program can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can request such options to the judge for approval. There are even drug and alcohol treatment centers that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, whereas clients are sometimes in a better position for early release or other leniencies when enrolling in addiction rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
