Baldwin - Criminal Justice Clients

Drug or alcohol treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to provide these clients the rehabilitation they need, there are some specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug or alcohol rehab program. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation during their time in the Baldwin, North Dakota criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who determines if they are in need of drug treatment services and if so how much and what type is necessary. Furthermore, when the client is evaluated for drug addiction problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health problems as well. Severity of addiction, mental health problems, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining variables in the creation of the rehabilitation plan.
