Criminal justice clients are a large portion of clientele who take part in drug and alcohol treatment programs in Alba, PA. and across the nation. Court systems around the country often find it more beneficial to rehabilitate men and women who have ended up in the criminal justice system for drug related crimes, instead of penalizing them to no avail with time in jail and other such rulings. It is proven to be more effective to address the trouble of drug addiction more straightforwardly, rather than enforce such penalties. The majority of who do not end up in drug rehab will often wind back up in the criminal justice system, while criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation often don't fall back into drug use and have a much better chance at remaining sober and away from the court system completely.
