Criminal justice clients in Boyertown make their way into drug and alcohol rehab facilities 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. Many courts put these types of individuals into the alcohol and drug rehab system mainly due to the fact that they believe that treating them is more productive for society and for the individual, rather than sending them in prison with no treatment at all. This has been proven to be very successful not only in helping and rehabilitating this type of client in Boyertown, but also in helping them remain abstinent and in a number of cases out of the criminal justice system for good.
