Criminal justice clients are a large portion of clients who are currently taking part in drug treatment centers in Conway, South Carolina and in the USA. Judicial systems in the U.S. often find it more helpful to rehabilitate people who have found their way into the court system for drug related crimes, instead of punishing them to no avail with time in jail and other penalties. It is proven to be more successful to address the trouble of drug or alcohol addiction directly, than to enforce such penalties. Most individuals who do not end up in drug and alcohol rehab will often wind back up in the criminal justice hamster wheel, while criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation generally don't fall back into drug use and have a better chance at staying abstinent and out of the court system entirely.
