Criminal justice clients in Alpena, AR. often end up in alcohol and drug rehab facilities due to the fact they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Some judges put these convicted individuals into the alcohol and drug treatment system mainly due to the fact that they feel that rehabilitating them will be more effective for society and for the person, rather than putting them in jail with no rehabilitation at all. This has been established to be very effective not only in healing and rehabbing these criminal justice clients in Alpena, AR., but also in helping them remain off of drugs and in a number of cases out of the criminal justice system once and for all.
