    You can inquire about drug courts in your county.
    Since rehabs are so full this has become an alternative in many states.
    Certainly her probation officers recommendation will weigh with the judge.

    Hello wilfredo:

    Probation officers don't offer help. They just bust people who don't obey the rules.

    Probation officers are not there to "help" you, they are there to watch to see if you do what the court orders. So with the problems, why are they not getting into rehab on their own,But with 11 violations, and if they are still using, they will be in prison anyway after the hearing
