Criminal justice clients in Bellevue, IA. often end up in drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities because they were found guilty of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Some judges put these types of persons into the drug treatment system mainly due to the fact that they consider that treating them is more productive for society and for the person, rather than putting them in jail with no treatment at all. This has been verified to be quite effective not only in treating and rehabbing this type of client in Bellevue, IA., but also in helping them remain sober and in many situations away from the criminal justice system for good.
