Criminal justice clients are a large percentage of clientele who are currently taking part in drug and alcohol rehab centers in Dewitt and across the nation. Judges around the country are finding it more beneficial to treat individuals who have found their way into the court system for drug related crimes, instead of penalizing them in vain with jail time and other penalties. It has proven more helpful to tackle the trouble of addiction directly, than to enforce these sorts of penalties. The majority of who do not wind up in drug rehabilitation will often turn right back up in the criminal justice system, while criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug treatment generally don't fall back into drug use and have a much better chance at remaining abstinent and out of the court system entirely.
