Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for clients in Deerfield who have been required to attend drug rehab as part of a sentence which has been issued because of a drug or alcohol related crime. Court appointed clients in Deerfield are often sent to attend a drug rehab facility in lieu of other sentencing options such as heavy fines and jail time. This is sometimes the case with first time offenders. This approach of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing and jailing them has proven very effective in Deerfield, 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.
