Clients referred from the court for drug rehabilitation are usually referred because they are being given a chance to try their hand at treatment rather than face jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent among 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 offenders might be referred to, and it usually depends on which programs are local to Oak City and the type of issues the person requires treatment for.
There are rehab facilities that work directly with the criminal justice court system to treat this explicit type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse treatment centers that can be accepted by the court if there is a specific type of recovery method that the client needs or desires that a state-funded program can't fulfill. The defendant's attorney can propose such options to the judge for approval. There are even substance abuse rehab centers that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, where clients are often in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when engaging in drug and alcohol rehabilitation services while serving their sentence for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
