Louisville - Criminal Justice Clients

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 clients the rehabilitation they need, there are a few steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Louisville, Tennessee 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 necessary. Additionally, when the client is evaluated for drug addiction problems, the client is also screened for mental health issues as well. Severity of addiction, mental health concerns, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining variables in the creation of a criminal justice treatment plan.
