A wonderful local resource is the Memphis Alcohol and Drug Council – Substance Abuse Services: 1430 Poplar Avenue, (901) 274-0056.
They offer referrals and treatment and accept payment on a sliding fee scale based on income. Among other things, they specialize in people involved in the criminal justice system.

Good luck with your brother.
