Criminal justice clients in St. Francis, MN. often end up in drug rehabilitation centers because they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were dealing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Many courts put these criminal persons into the drug and alcohol treatment system mainly due to the fact that they feel that treating them will be more effective for the culture at large and for the person, rather than placing them in jail with no treatment at all. This has been established to be incredibly successful not only in helping and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in St. Francis, MN., but also in helping them stay off of drugs and in a lot of instances out of the criminal justice system permanently.
