Drug treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to get these individuals the rehabilitation they need, there are some steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug rehabilitation facility. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Newton, Illinois criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed by a panel who determines 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 screened for mental health problems as well. Severity of addiction, mental health problems, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice treatment plan.
