Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse treatment are typically referred because they are being given a chance to receive rehab instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common with first time offenders, it can occur at any time including while the defendant is being held in jail. There are various types of programs that criminal justice clients might be referred to, and this depends on which programs are attainable in Pearisburg and the type of substance they'll need treatment for.
There are programs that work exclusively with the criminal justice court system to treat this specific type of clientele, and are typically publicly-funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. Additionally, there are also private substance abuse recovery centers that can be approved by the court if there is a specific type of rehab that the client needs or wants that a state-funded program can't fulfill. The client's legal representation can push for such alternatives to the judge for permission. There are even drug rehab facilities that operate out of the jails and prisons themselves, in which case clients are often in a better position for early release or other benefits when enrolling in substance abuse rehabilitation services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
