Rehab for court appointed clients are for individuals in McKenzie, Tennessee who have been sent to drug treatment as part of a sentence which has been issued because of an alcohol or drug related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in McKenzie are often sentenced to attend a drug treatment program in lieu of other justice actions such as jail time and heavy fines. This is most often the case with first time offenders. This method of rehabilitating the criminal rather than punishing and jailing them has proven very effective in McKenzie, not only in getting the individual abstinent or sober, but also in preventing the same substance abuse related crimes in the future.
