Criminal justice clients in Dunn, North Carolina make their way into alcohol and drug rehab facilities because they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were selling drugs or were in the possession of or under the influence of drugs. Many judges put these criminal persons into the alcohol and drug treatment system mainly due to the fact that they believe that rehabilitating them is more productive for society and for the person, rather than placing them behind bars with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be extremely successful not only in healing and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in Dunn, North Carolina, but also in helping them stay abstinent and in a number of cases out of the criminal justice system permanently.
