Hodges, Alabama - Criminal Justice Clients

Drug treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. 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 treatment program. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug treatment while involved in the Hodges, Alabama criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed 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 the client is screened for substance abuse problems, the client is also screened for mental health problems 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.
