Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for individuals in Monticello, Missouri 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 Monticello are sometimes sentenced to enroll into a drug treatment facility in lieu of other justice actions such as heavy fines and jail time. This is sometimes the case with first time offenders. This method of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing and jailing them has proven very effective in Monticello, not only in getting the individual abstinent or sober, but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for the same drug or alcohol related crimes in the future.
