Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - New York City, NY.

Clients referred from the court for drug rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being granted a chance to try their hand at rehab in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common among first time offenders, it can happen at any point such as while someone is already incarcerated. There are different types of programs that offenders might be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are available in New York City and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.

There are treatment programs that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to administer to this specific type of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private drug rehabilitation centers that might be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the person needs or wants that a different program can't provide. The client's legal representation can propose such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even addiction rehabilitation programs that operate out of the correctional institutions themselves, in which case clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when engaging in drug rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
