Criminal justice clients in Ambler often end up in drug treatment facilities because they were found guilty 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 criminal persons into the drug and alcohol treatment system because they believe that rehabilitating these persons 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 very effective not only in healing and rehabilitating this type of client in Ambler, but also in helping them stay sober and in many instances away from the criminal justice system once and for all.
