Clients Referred from the Court - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Waterford, NY.

Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are typically 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 happen at any time such as while the person is already incarcerated. There are different types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and it usually all depends on what is available in Waterford and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.

There are programs that work directly with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug rehabilitation facilities that may be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client needs or prefers that a different facility can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can request such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even substance abuse treatment facilities that operate out of the jails themselves, whereas clients are typically in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when participating in drug rehabilitation services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
