Court-Referred for Substance Use? Why an Assessment Should Be Your First Step

June 20, 2025

Getting referred by a court or probation officer for substance use education can feel overwhelming. Where do you start? Do you really need an assessment?


The answer is yes — and here’s why.


A professional assessment protects you.

Not every substance-related charge means a person needs treatment. Our licensed professionals use evidence-based tools to determine the right level of care — no more, no less.


At CCSVA, your assessment helps determine if you:

  • Meet criteria for Early Intervention (Level 0.5)
  • Need Outpatient or IOP (Intensive Outpatient)
  • Could benefit from other services


And here’s the best part: If Early Intervention is right for you, the cost of your $225 assessment gets applied toward the Clean Start Program when you enroll within 48 hours.


We believe in doing things the right way — and that starts with understanding your unique story.
