Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for people in Stillwater, Minnesota who have been required to attend drug rehab as part of a sentence which has been issued because of a drug or alcohol related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in Stillwater are sometimes sent to attend a drug rehabilitation center 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 and jailing them has proven very helpful in Stillwater, not only in getting the person 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.
