Drug Treatment for court appointed clients are for people in El Dorado, Arkansas who have been required to attend drug treatment as part of a sentence which has been issued because of a drug or alcohol related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in El Dorado are occasionally sentenced to participate at a drug rehab facility in lieu of other justice actions such as jail time and heavy fines. This is typically the case with first time offenders. This method of rehabilitating the criminal instead of punishing them has proven very successful in El Dorado, not only in getting the individual abstinent or sober, but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for the same substance abuse related crimes in the future.
