Criminal justice clients in Harlowton make their way into alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities due to the fact they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were dealing drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Some courts put these types of persons into the alcohol and drug rehab system because they consider that rehabbing these persons is more helpful for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than placing them in prison with no treatment at all. This has been verified to be extremely successful not only in helping and rehabbing these criminal justice clients in Harlowton, but also in helping them remain sober and in many situations out of the criminal justice system permanently.
