Drug Treatment for court appointed clients are for clients in Grand Forks, North Dakota who have been required to attend drug treatment as part of a sentence which has been given because of an alcohol or drug related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in Grand Forks are occasionally sentenced to participate at a drug rehab center in lieu of other justice actions such as jail time and heavy fines. This is typically the case with first time offenders. This method of rehabilitating the criminal instead of punishing and jailing them has proven very successful in Grand Forks, not only in getting the person 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.
