Criminal justice clients are a considerable percentage of clients who take part in alcohol and drug rehab programs in Ruleville, MS. and across the nation. Judges around the country are finding it more beneficial to rehabilitate individuals who have ended up in the criminal justice system for drug related crimes, instead of punishing them to no avail with time in jail and other penalties. It has proven more successful to deal with the problem of addiction directly, rather than enforce these sorts of penalties. Most who do not end up in drug and alcohol rehabilitation will often wind back up in the criminal justice hamster wheel, whilst criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehab often don't make the same mistakes and have a much better chance at remaining sober and away from the court system for good.
