Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Mercer, MO.

Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are usually referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can be offered at any point such as while someone is already incarcerated. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are available in Mercer and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.

There are programs that work directly with the courts to treat this explicit group of clientele, and are typically state or federally funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol rehab facilities that might be approved by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client requires or prefers that a different facility can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can request such options to the judge for approval. There are even addiction rehab programs that provide services from the jails themselves, whereas clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when enrolling in drug rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
