Criminal justice clients in Belleville often end up in drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Many judges put these convicted individuals into the drug rehab system because they consider that treating 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 extremely workable not only in healing and rehabbing these criminal justice clients in Belleville, but also in keeping them sober and in many cases out of the criminal justice system once and for all.
