Criminal justice clients in Gilbert, West Virginia often end up in alcohol and drug treatment programs because they were found guilty of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Many courts put these criminal individuals into the drug and alcohol rehab system because they believe that rehabbing them will be more effective for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than putting them behind bars with no treatment at all. This has been verified to be very effective not only in healing and rehabbing these criminal justice clients in Gilbert, West Virginia, but also in helping them remain abstinent and in many situations away from the criminal justice system once and for all.
