Criminal justice clients are a significant percentage of clients who take part in alcohol and drug rehab programs in Central, South Carolina and in the USA. Court systems in the U.S. often find it more beneficial to rehab people who have wound up in the criminal justice system for drug related crimes, instead of penalizing them to no avail with jail time and other such rulings. It is proven to be more helpful to deal with the trouble of drug or alcohol addiction directly, rather than invoke such penalties. Most who do not make their way to drug and alcohol rehabilitation will frequently wind back up in the criminal justice system, whilst criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation often don't make the same mistakes and have a better chance at staying sober and out of the court system completely.
