Criminal justice clients in Lost Springs make their way into alcohol and drug treatment facilities due to the fact they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or were in the possession of or found to be high on drugs. Some courts put these convicted persons into the drug rehabilitation system mainly due to the fact that they consider that rehabbing these persons is more effective for society and for the person, rather than sending them in jail with no treatment at all. This has been proven to be quite effective not only in healing and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in Lost Springs, but also in helping them stay off of drugs and in a lot of instances out of the criminal justice system permanently.
