Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being granted a chance to try their hand at rehab rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while the person is already incarcerated. There are various types of facilities that offenders may be referred to, and this depends on what is available in Ithaca and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.
There are rehab facilities that work directly with the courts to treat this specific group of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol rehab programs that might be approved by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client needs or desires that a different program can't provide. The client's legal representation can propose such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even substance abuse treatment centers that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, whereas clients are sometimes in a better position for early release or other benefits when participating in drug and alcohol rehabilitation services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
