Criminal justice clients in Gheens often end up in drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs because they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were dealing drugs or were in the possession of or under the influence of drugs. Many courts put these criminal persons into the alcohol and drug rehabilitation system because they believe that treating them will be more effective for society and for the individual, rather than sending them behind bars with no treatment at all. This has been proven to be quite successful not only in helping and rehabbing this type of client in Gheens, but also in keeping them off of drugs and in many instances away from the criminal justice system for good.
