Criminal justice clients are a significant percentage of clientele who take part in drug and alcohol rehab centers in Duck Creek Village and across the nation. Court systems in the U.S. are finding it more beneficial to rehabilitate people who have ended up in the court system for crimes relating to drugs, rather than punishing them in vain with time in jail and other such rulings. It has proven more effective to address the problem of drug addiction directly, than to enforce such penalties. Most who do not wind up in drug rehabilitation will often turn right back up in the criminal justice system, while criminal justice clients in drug treatment generally don't fall back into drug use and have a far better chance at staying abstinent and out of the court system for good.
