Criminal justice clients are a large percentage of clientele who are currently taking part in drug and alcohol treatment facilities in Fairbank, IA. and across the nation. Court systems in the U.S. often find it more effective to rehab people who have ended up in the criminal justice 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 successful to address the issue of addiction directly, than to enforce these sorts of penalties. Most who do not end up in alcohol and drug rehab will frequently wind back up in the criminal justice system, while criminal justice clients in drug rehab frequently don't fall back into drug use and have a much better chance at remaining sober and out of the court system entirely.
