Drug Addiction & Prison Sentences?

Question by Free Thinker: Drug addiction & prison sentences?
There is a young man that I know who has been addicted to crack cocaine for a long time. He went to prison nearly 4 years ago, was just released to a work release program then with the intense pressure put on him to obtain employment under very stringent regulations and in a very depressed economy along with the fact that his mother is dying a very horrible death, he requested to be sent back to his previous facility to serve the remainder of his sentence. That request was rejected, 2 days later he obtained crack and got high out of desperation. He was caught and sent back to prison. Now the dept of corrections wants to charge him with up to 15 years for possession on a correctional facility.
He is in solitary confinement for 150 days which in my opinion is cruel and unusual punishment.

Answer by SA16
It is often free through government subsidized programs. There are private rehabs, however, that you must pay for. It also depends on whether it is inpatient or outpatient, and how long you are there. For example, 21 day program is obviously cheaper than a 90 day program.

It does work for many people. But, many, many people have to go more than once for it to “take.” Addictions are tough. The best predictors of success include readiness to change (for real) and the person’s support network (family, friends, priest, etc.).

Can Someone Tell Me How to Find an Addiction Treatment Center in Asbury Park, New Jersey?

Question by carissa j: Can someone tell me how to find an addiction treatment center in Asbury Park, New Jersey?
We’ve only just moved to this area, so I’m really not familiar with the place yet. It’s just that we need to put our son in an addiction treatment center, to get him treated for his alcoholism. Any tips you can offer will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
