Drug Treatment for court appointed clients are for people in Lake Elmo who have been required to attend drug rehab as part of a sentence which has been given because of an alcohol or drug related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in Lake Elmo are often sent to enroll into a drug rehabilitation facility in lieu of other sentencing options such as heavy fines and jail time. This is sometimes the case with first time offenders. This method of rehabilitating the criminal instead of punishing and jailing them has shown to be very effective in Lake Elmo, not only in getting the person abstinent or sober, but also in preventing the same drug or alcohol related crimes in the future.
