Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for clients in West Point who have been sent to drug rehabilitation as part of a sentence which has been issued because of a drug or alcohol related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in West Point are occasionally sent to attend a drug rehabilitation program in lieu of other justice actions such as heavy fines and jail time. This is sometimes the case with first time offenders. This approach of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing and jailing them has proven very beneficial in West Point, not only in getting the individual abstinent or sober, but also in preventing the same drug or alcohol related crimes in the future.
