Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for individuals in Westport who have been required to attend drug treatment as part of a sentence which has been issued because of a drug or alcohol related crime. Court appointed clients in Westport are occasionally sentenced to participate at a drug treatment center in lieu of other justice actions 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 shown to be very helpful in Westport, NY., not only in getting the individual abstinent or sober, but also in preventing the same drug or alcohol related crimes in the future.
