Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are usually referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at treatment in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is most common with first time offenders, it can happen at any point such as while the person is being held in jail. There are different types of programs that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and this all depends on what is attainable in Shawnee and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. There are also private addiction rehabilitation centers that might be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of recovery method that the client needs or prefers that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can present such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even substance abuse recovery centers that provide services from the correctional institutions themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when engaging in drug and alcohol rehab services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
