Rehab for court appointed clients are for clients in Lerna, Illinois who have been sent to drug rehab as part of a sentence which has been issued because of a drug or alcohol related crime. Court appointed clients in Lerna are occasionally sentenced to participate at a drug rehabilitation program 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 helpful in Lerna, Illinois, 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.
