Criminal justice clients are a large portion of clientele who take part in drug rehab programs in Canton, Oklahoma and across the nation. Court systems in the U.S. are finding it more effective to treat men and women who have wound up in the court system for crimes relating to drugs, rather than penalizing them to no avail with time in jail and other such rulings. It has proven more helpful to deal with the issue of drug addiction directly, than to enforce such penalties. Most who do not wind up in alcohol and drug rehab will typically wind back up in the criminal justice system, while criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation generally don't make the same mistakes and have a better chance at staying sober and away from the court system entirely.
