Criminal justice clients in Aristes, Pennsylvania often end up in drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers because they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were distributing drugs or were in the possession of or under the influence of drugs. Some judges put these convicted individuals into the alcohol and drug treatment system because they consider that rehabbing these persons will be more productive for the culture at large and for the person, rather than putting them in prison with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be very successful not only in treating and rehabilitating this type of client in Aristes, Pennsylvania, but also in keeping them abstinent and in many cases out of the criminal justice system for good.
