Criminal justice clients in Gainesville, Virginia often end up in drug rehabilitation facilities because they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Some courts put these criminal individuals into the drug rehabilitation system because they feel that treating these individuals is more helpful for the culture at large and for the person, rather than sending them in prison with no treatment at all. This has been verified to be quite successful not only in treating and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in Gainesville, Virginia, but also in helping them remain abstinent and in many cases away from the criminal justice system permanently.
