Criminal justice clients in Lillington often end up in alcohol and drug treatment programs due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Many judges put these types of persons into the drug and alcohol treatment system because they believe that rehabbing these individuals will be more productive for society and for the person, rather than sending them behind bars with no treatment at all. This has been proven to be extremely effective not only in treating and rehabbing this type of client in Lillington, but also in helping them remain off of drugs and in a number of situations out of the criminal justice system once and for all.
