Drug rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to provide these clients the rehabilitation they need, there are a few steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug or alcohol rehab program. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation during their time in the Fonda, Iowa criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who makes the decision if they are in need of rehabilitation 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 problems as well. Severity of addiction, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice treatment plan.
