Criminal justice clients in Aripeka, Florida often end up in drug and alcohol rehab centers because they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or were in the possession of or under the influence of drugs. Many judges put these convicted individuals into the alcohol and drug treatment system because they believe that rehabbing them is more helpful for society and for the person, rather than sending them behind bars with no rehab at all. This has been verified to be quite effective not only in healing and rehabbing this type of client in Aripeka, Florida, but also in helping them remain abstinent and in many cases out of the criminal justice system permanently.
