Criminal justice clients are a significant percentage of clientele who take part in alcohol and drug treatment programs in Lake Katrine, New York and in the USA. Judicial systems around the country are finding it more advantageous to rehab individuals who have ended up in the court system for crimes relating to drugs, rather than punishing them to no avail with time in jail and other penalties. It is proven to be more effective to address the issue of addiction directly, rather than enforce these sorts of penalties. The majority of individuals who do not end up in drug rehabilitation will often wind back up in the criminal justice system, while criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol treatment often don't fall back into drug use and have a much better chance at staying sober and out of the court system completely.
