Rehab for court appointed clients are for people in Fair Haven, New York 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 Fair Haven are sometimes sent to participate at a drug rehab program in lieu of other justice actions such as heavy fines and jail time. This is most often the case with first time offenders. This method of rehabilitating the criminal instead of punishing and jailing them has proven very helpful in Fair Haven, not only in getting the individual abstinent or sober, but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for the same drug or alcohol related crimes in the future.
