How Do You Get a Court Order for Someone Who Needs Rehab?

Question by Heather: How do you get a court order for someone who needs rehab?
Children services have been called because an 11 year old is in the household. But this person is using drugs and refuses to get help. I think she’s bipolar but I don’t have the money to pay for rehab so I figured is there any way to get a court order for a state funded rehab program.

The only a court will order rehab is if she is convicted of a crime. If you want to help her–get her arrested. You know she does drugs so call the cops on her when you know she has drugs in the house. the judge will order her to rehab instead of jail.
