Criminal justice clients in Elmore City, Oklahoma often end up in alcohol and drug rehab facilities due to the fact they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Some courts put these criminal persons into the drug and alcohol rehabilitation system because they consider that rehabbing these persons will be more helpful for the culture at large and for the person, rather than placing them behind bars with no treatment at all. This has been established to be quite effective not only in helping and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in Elmore City, Oklahoma, but also in keeping them off of drugs and in many situations away from the criminal justice system permanently.
