Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for individuals in New Milford, Connecticut who have been sent to drug rehab as part of a sentence which has been issued because of an alcohol or drug related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in New Milford are occasionally sent to attend a drug rehabilitation center in lieu of other justice actions such as jail time and heavy fines. This is most often the case with first time offenders. This method of rehabilitating the criminal instead of punishing them has proven very effective in New Milford, 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.
