Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - East Amherst, NY.

Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are most commonly referred because they are being given a chance to accept treatment in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can occur at any point including while someone is already incarcerated. There are different types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and this depends on what is attainable in East Amherst and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.

There are treatment programs that work exclusively with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually state funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug and alcohol rehab facilities that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the person requires or prefers that a state-funded program can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can push for such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even substance abuse rehabilitation facilities that operate out of the correctional institutions themselves, whereas clients are sometimes in a better position for early release or other benefits when participating in drug rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
