Criminal justice clients are a significant percentage of clientele who are currently taking part in drug and alcohol treatment programs in Canton and in the USA. Judges in the U.S. are finding it more beneficial to treat men and women who have found their way into the court system for crimes relating to drugs, instead of penalizing them to no avail with jail time and other penalties. It is proven to be more successful to deal with the problem of addiction directly, rather than enforce these sorts of penalties. Most individuals who do not end up in alcohol and drug rehab will often wind back up in the criminal justice hamster wheel, whilst criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehabilitation generally don't make the same mistakes and have a much better chance at staying sober and away from the court system for good.
