Drug or alcohol treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to get these individuals the treatment they need, there are some specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a recovery rehabilitation facility. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehab while involved in the Pacific, Washington criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who determines if they are in need of rehabilitation and if so how much and what type is required. Additionally, when they are evaluated for drug addiction problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health issues as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining variables in the creation of the rehabilitation plan.
