Criminal justice clients in Hollis Center often end up in alcohol and drug rehab programs because they were convicted 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 types of persons into the alcohol and drug rehabilitation system mainly due to the fact that they consider that rehabbing these persons is more helpful for the culture at large and for the person, rather than sending them in jail with no rehab at all. This has been proven to be very workable not only in treating and rehabilitating this type of client in Hollis Center, but also in helping them remain off of drugs and in many situations out of the criminal justice system once and for all.
