Criminal justice clients in Clarcona make their way into alcohol and drug rehab facilities due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or were in the possession of or found to be high on drugs. Many judges put these convicted individuals into the alcohol and drug rehab system because they consider that rehabilitating these individuals is more effective for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than placing them in jail with no rehabilitation at all. This has been established to be quite effective not only in treating and rehabilitating this type of client in Clarcona, but also in helping them stay off of drugs and in many cases away from the criminal justice system for good.
