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 clients the treatment they need, there are some specific steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a drug or alcohol rehab program. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Litchfield, Ohio criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed by a panel who determines if they are in need of drug treatment services and if so how much and what type is necessary. Furthermore, when the client is screened for drug addiction 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 variables in the creation of a criminal justice treatment plan.
