Treatment clients referred from the court for drug treatment are usually referred because they are being granted a chance to receive treatment instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent with first time offenders, it can occur at any point such as while the defendant is being held in jail. There are different types of programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and it usually depends on what is available in Bluefield and the type of drug or alcohol the person requires treatment for.
There are programs that work directly with the courts to administer to this specific group of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are available at no cost or very little cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private substance abuse recovery programs that may be approved by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the client requires or wants that a different facility can't provide. The defendant's attorney can push for such options to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug and alcohol treatment centers that operate out of the jails themselves, whereas clients are typically in a better position for early release or other benefits when enrolling in substance abuse treatment services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
