Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for clients in Bybee who have been sent to drug treatment as part of a sentence which has been given because of a drug or alcohol related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in Bybee are often sentenced to participate at a drug rehab center in lieu of other justice actions such as jail time and heavy fines. This is sometimes the case with first time offenders. This method of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing them has proven very effective in Bybee, not only in getting the individual abstinent or sober, but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for the same alcohol or drug related crimes in the future.
