Drug Treatment for court appointed clients are for clients in Dupo who have been sent to drug rehabilitation as part of a sentence which has been given because of a drug or alcohol related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in Dupo are sometimes sent to attend a drug rehabilitation facility in lieu of other justice actions such as jail time and heavy fines. This is most often the case with first time offenders. This approach of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing and jailing them has shown to be very successful in Dupo, 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.
