Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Newport, RI.

Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehabilitation in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can happen at any point including while the person is being held in jail. There are different types of programs that criminal justice clients may be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are attainable in Newport and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.

There are rehab facilities that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to treat this explicit type of clientele, and are usually state or federally funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private drug rehab programs that can be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of recovery method that the person requires or prefers that a state-funded facility can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can push for such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even addiction rehabilitation programs that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, in which case clients are sometimes in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when participating in addiction rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
