Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for individuals in Port Huron 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 Port Huron, Michigan are often sentenced to participate at a drug rehabilitation program 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 instead of punishing them has proven very effective in Port Huron, not only in getting the person abstinent or sober, but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for the same substance abuse related crimes in the future.
