Criminal justice clients in Hope make their way into alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities due to the fact they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Many judges put these convicted persons into the drug and alcohol rehabilitation system because they consider that rehabbing these individuals is more helpful for the culture at large and for the person, rather than putting them behind bars with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be very effective not only in healing and rehabilitating this type of client in Hope, but also in helping them stay sober and in a lot of situations out of the criminal justice system permanently.
