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 treatment they need, there are a few specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a recovery treatment facility. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug treatment while involved in the Calio, North Dakota criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who determines if they are in need of treatment and if so how much and what type is needed. Additionally, when the client is screened for substance abuse problems, the client is also screened 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.
