Rehab for court appointed clients are for people in Chappell Hill who have been required to attend drug treatment as part of a sentence which has been given because of an alcohol or drug related crime. Court appointed clients in Chappell Hill are occasionally sentenced to attend a drug rehab facility 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 beneficial in Chappell Hill, not only in getting the individual 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.
