Criminal justice clients in La Vergne make their way into drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs due to the fact they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Many courts put these types of persons into the drug and alcohol rehabilitation system mainly due to the fact that they believe that rehabbing these individuals will be more effective for society and for the individual, rather than placing them behind bars with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be incredibly effective not only in healing and rehabilitating this type of client in La Vergne, but also in helping them stay abstinent and in many situations away from the criminal justice system for good.
