Can I choose my own program for a court order?
It is common, and a program that takes referrals will know exactly what the court expects. Attendance records are the usual thing reported, and the content of the sessions usually is not. Ask who signs the completion paperwork and how long it takes.
Can I keep taking my prescriptions in treatment?
They normally continue, and a prescriber reviews the whole list rather than applying a rule to it. Stopping a psychiatric medication abruptly can cause real harm, which is why this is never a decision to make alone. Ask who to speak to if something needs changing mid program.
How long would I be in a program?
The block you are offered and the time the work takes are two different things, and that is the honest answer. A plan may approve days in batches and review before extending, so the length can change while you are in it. Ask what the program does when somebody needs more time than the block allows.
