Criminal justice clients in Fairmount, Indiana make their way into drug and alcohol treatment programs due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Many courts put these types of individuals into the alcohol and drug rehabilitation system because they believe that treating these individuals will be more effective for the culture at large and for the person, rather than sending them behind bars with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be very successful not only in helping and rehabilitating this type of client in Fairmount, Indiana, but also in helping them stay sober and in many cases away from the criminal justice system permanently.
