Giddings - Criminal Justice Clients

Drug 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 should be followed before they can enroll into a drug or alcohol treatment facility. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Giddings, Texas criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed by a panel who determines if they are in need of rehabilitation and if so how much and what type is required. Additionally, when they are evaluated for drug addiction problems, the client is also screened for mental health problems as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health concerns, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining variables in the creation of the rehabilitation plan.
