Drug or alcohol rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to provide these individuals the treatment they need, there are some steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug treatment center. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehab during their time in the Leon, New York 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 they are evaluated for substance abuse problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health issues as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health concerns, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice rehabilitation plan.
