Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are usually referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehab in lieu of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. Although this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can happen at any point such as while someone is being held in jail. There are different types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and this all depends on which programs are attainable in St. George and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.
There are programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse rehabilitation programs that may be approved 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 client's attorney can request such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug rehabilitation centers that provide services from the correctional facilities themselves, whereas clients are typically in a better position for early release or other benefits when enrolling in drug rehab services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
