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 individuals the rehabilitation they need, there are a few 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 during their time in the Hickory Plains, Arkansas criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed by a panel who makes the decision if they are in need of treatment and if so how much and what type is needed. Furthermore, when the client is screened for drug addiction problems, the client is also screened for mental health problems as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health problems, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining variables in the creation of a criminal justice rehabilitation plan.
