Rehabilitation for court appointed clients are for individuals in Robinson, Illinois who have been sent to drug rehabilitation as part of a sentence which has been issued because of a drug or alcohol related criminal activity. Court appointed clients in Robinson are occasionally sentenced to participate at a drug rehab program in lieu of other sentencing options such as jail time and heavy fines.

This approach of rehabilitating the criminal instead of punishing them has shown to be very effective in Robinson, not only in getting the person abstinent or sober, but also in preventing the same substance abuse related crimes in the future.
