Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for individuals in Defuniak Springs who have been required to attend drug rehab as part of a sentence which has been given because of a drug or alcohol related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in Defuniak Springs are occasionally sent to attend a drug rehab program in lieu of other justice actions such as jail time and heavy fines. This is typically the case with first time offenders. This approach of rehabilitating the criminal instead of punishing them has shown to be very beneficial in Defuniak Springs, not only in getting the individual abstinent or sober, but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for the same substance abuse related crimes in the future.
