Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to receive rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are various types of programs that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and this depends on which programs are local to Smyrna and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.
There are treatment programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug and alcohol treatment facilities that might be approved by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client needs or wants that a different program can't provide. The client's attorney can propose such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even substance abuse rehabilitation centers that provide services from the correctional institutions themselves, whereas clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when enrolling in drug rehab services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
