Drug treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to provide these individuals the rehabilitation they need, there are a few specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a recovery rehab facility. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug treatment during their time in the Williamston, South Carolina 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. Furthermore, when they are screened for substance abuse problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health issues as well. Severity of addiction, 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.
