Criminal justice clients in Rolla often end up in drug treatment programs due to the fact they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Many courts put these criminal persons into the drug and alcohol rehab system mainly due to the fact that they consider that rehabbing these individuals is more effective for society and for the person, rather than sending them in jail with no rehabilitation at all. This has been established to be very workable not only in treating and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in Rolla, but also in helping them remain sober and in many situations away from the criminal justice system for good.
