Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for individuals in Hoover who have been sent to drug rehabilitation as part of a sentence which has been issued because of a drug or alcohol related crime. Court appointed clients in Hoover are occasionally sentenced to attend a drug rehabilitation facility in lieu of other sentencing options 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 Hoover, AL., 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.
