Drug Treatment for court appointed clients are for clients in Brooklyn who have been required to attend drug treatment as part of a sentence which has been issued because of an alcohol or drug related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in Brooklyn, Mississippi are often sent to enroll into a drug treatment program in lieu of other justice actions such as heavy fines and jail time. This is sometimes the case with first time offenders. This method of rehabilitating the criminal instead of punishing and jailing them has shown to be very beneficial in Brooklyn, not only in getting the person abstinent or sober, but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for the same substance abuse related crimes in the future.
