Drug Treatment for court appointed clients are for clients in New Albany, Pennsylvania who have been required to attend drug rehab as part of a sentence which has been given because of a drug or alcohol related crime. Court appointed clients in New Albany are occasionally sent to attend a drug treatment program in lieu of other sentencing options such as jail time and heavy fines. This is sometimes the case with first time offenders. This approach of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing them has shown to be very successful in New Albany, 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.
