Criminal justice clients in Chadds Ford often end up in drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Some judges put these types of individuals into the drug rehab system mainly due to the fact that they consider that rehabbing them is more effective for society and for the individual, rather than placing them in prison with no rehab at all. This has been proven to be quite effective not only in helping and rehabbing these criminal justice clients in Chadds Ford, but also in helping them remain abstinent and in a number of instances away from the criminal justice system permanently.
