Treatment clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol treatment are most commonly referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can be offered at any time including while someone is already incarcerated. There are different types of facilities that offenders might be referred to, and it usually all depends on what is local to Sterling and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.
There are recovery programs that work primarily with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific group of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are offered at no cost or very little cost to the client. There are also private substance abuse treatment programs that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person requires or prefers that a different program can't fulfill. The defendant's legal representation can propose such options to the judge for approval. There are even substance abuse treatment centers that operate out of the correctional institutions themselves, where clients are typically in a better position for reduced sentences or other leniencies when participating in addiction treatment services while serving their sentence for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
