Whitney - Criminal Justice Clients

Drug treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to get these individuals the treatment they need, there are some steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a drug rehabilitation center. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehab while involved in the Whitney, Pennsylvania criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed by a panel who makes the decision if they are in need of treatment and if so how much and what type is needed. Additionally, when the client is evaluated for substance abuse problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health problems as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice rehabilitation plan.
