Criminal justice clients in Germantown often end up in drug rehabilitation programs because they were found guilty of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were found to be high on drugs. Many judges put these convicted individuals into the drug and alcohol rehabilitation system because they consider that rehabilitating them is more effective for society and for the individual, rather than putting them in jail with no treatment at all. This has been proven to be quite workable not only in treating and rehabbing this type of client in Germantown, but also in keeping them sober and in a number of situations out of the criminal justice system permanently.
