Clients Referred from the Court - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - University Of Richmond, VA.

Treatment clients referred from the court for substance abuse rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being given a chance to receive treatment instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is most common among first time offenders, it can be offered at any time such as while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are various types of rehab programs that criminal justice clients can be referred to, and it usually depends on what is available in University Of Richmond and the type of drug or alcohol they'll need treatment for.

There are programs that work exclusively with the courts to treat this specific type of clientele, and are usually publicly-funded or are offered at little or no cost to the client. There are also private addiction rehab centers that can be authorized by the court if there is a specific type of rehabilitation that the person requires or prefers that a state-funded facility can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can push for such alternatives to the judge for approval. There are even addiction treatment centers that operate out of the correctional facilities themselves, whereas clients are typically in a better position for reduced sentences or other benefits when participating in drug treatment services while serving their time for a drug offense or a DUI/DWI.
