Rehab for court appointed clients are for individuals in Cando, ND. who have been required to attend drug rehabilitation as part of a sentence which has been issued because of an alcohol or drug related crime. Court appointed clients in Cando are occasionally sentenced to participate at a drug treatment facility in lieu of other justice actions such as jail time and heavy fines. This is typically the case with first time offenders. This approach of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing them has shown to be very helpful in Cando, North Dakota, 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.
