Drug or alcohol rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to get these clients the rehabilitation they need, there are some specific steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a recovery rehabilitation center. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Easthampton, Massachusetts criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who decides if they are in need of drug treatment services and if so how much and what type is required. Furthermore, when they are evaluated for drug addiction problems, the client is also screened for mental health issues as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice rehabilitation plan.
