Criminal justice clients in Elkmont, AL. make their way into drug and alcohol rehab facilities because they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Some judges put these convicted individuals into the drug rehabilitation system mainly due to the fact that they feel that rehabilitating these persons will be more productive for society and for the individual, rather than placing them in jail with no rehab at all. This has been proven to be very effective not only in helping and rehabbing this type of client in Elkmont, AL., but also in keeping them sober and in many instances away from the criminal justice system once and for all.
