An Illegal Drug Possession Conviction Does Not Mean Prison Time
If you have been convicted on prescription drug charges, you have options other than jail time. Connecticut offers several alternatives to jail, including many types of aggressive drug treatment programs. If you qualify for these programs, you may be able to avoid a drug conviction on your record. You may be eligible for these programs, even if you are a multiple offender or have no health insurance.
