Drug rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to provide these clients the rehabilitation they need, there are a few steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug or alcohol treatment facility. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation during their time in the Lawrence, Pennsylvania criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who decides if they are in need of drug treatment services and if so how much and what type is necessary. Furthermore, when the client is evaluated for substance abuse problems, the client is also screened for mental health issues 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 rehabilitation plan.
