Drug or alcohol rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to provide these clients the rehabilitation they need, there are some steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug or alcohol treatment program. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Hansboro, North Dakota criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who makes the decision if they are in need of drug treatment services 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. Severity of addiction, mental health concerns, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining variables in the creation of a criminal justice treatment plan.
