Criminal justice clients in Ahwahnee, CA. often end up in drug and alcohol rehab programs because they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Many judges put these types of persons into the alcohol and drug treatment system mainly due to the fact that they consider that rehabbing these persons is more helpful for society and for the individual, rather than putting them behind bars with no treatment at all. This has been proven to be quite workable not only in healing and rehabilitating this type of client in Ahwahnee, CA., but also in helping them remain off of drugs and in many situations out of the criminal justice system permanently.
