Drug treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to get these clients the treatment they need, there are some specific steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a drug or alcohol treatment program. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehab while involved in the Alicia, Arkansas criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who determines if they are in need of rehabilitation and if so how much and what type is required. Furthermore, when they are screened for substance abuse problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health issues as well. Severity of addiction, mental health problems, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice treatment plan.
