Drug or alcohol treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to provide these individuals the rehabilitation they need, there are some specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug rehab center. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehab during their time in the Saxapahaw, North Carolina criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who makes the decision if they are in need of rehabilitation and if so how much and what type is required. Additionally, when the client is evaluated for drug addiction problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health problems as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health concerns, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice treatment plan.
