Alternatives to Incarceration with Recovery Courts

Tennessee has 82 recovery courts which offer the option of substance abuse treatment in place of incarceration. The courts handle supervision, drug testing, treatment services, immediate sanctions and incentives. The program is intensive, but offenders who are willing to complete the program graduate with sobriety and a new life.

The program is only offered to nonviolent offenders with substance use disorders. Completing the program results in a reduction of correctional costs and increases the likelihood of successful recovery. The offender will be under legal and clinical supervision with treatment, mandatory periodic drug testing, community supervision and other rehabilitation services.

A second extension of recovery courts is DWI (driving while impaired) court. This program is for repeat offenders. Included is close monitoring of offenders, home and field visits, ignition interlock devices and transdermal alcohol detection devices.

Another extension of recovery courts is Juvenile Drug Court. This program is for youth identified as having issues with alcohol and/or other drugs. Weekly meetings of the juvenile treatment court team and the family of the youth are spent discussing best methods for addressing substance abuse and related problems of the youth.

Family dependency treatment is a program for parents charged with substance abuse issues. Judges, attorneys, child protection services and treatment personnel work together to rehabilitate the parent and give them a chance to regain custody of their children.

Treatment Funding for Court Ordered Offenders

In Tennessee there are several resources for funding required treatment. Alcohol and Drug Addiction Treatment (ADAT) covers those convicted of DUI, are unable to pay for services and are court ordered to enter treatment.

Addiction Treatments

Treatments

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

When your day-to-day life is taken over by drug use, this is known as substance use disorder. If you abruptly stop using your drug of choice, you experience withdrawal symptoms. To overcome this cycle, professional drug rehab in Tennessee is usually needed.

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

Clinical Services

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
