Rehab for court appointed clients are for clients in Freeport, Maine who have been sent to drug treatment as part of a sentence which has been issued because of a drug or alcohol related crime. Court appointed clients in Freeport are occasionally sentenced to participate at a drug rehab center in lieu of other justice actions such as heavy fines and jail time. This is most often the case with first time offenders. This approach of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing and jailing them has shown to be very beneficial in Freeport, Maine, 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.
