Criminal justice clients are a large percentage of clients who take part in drug and alcohol treatment programs in Malverne and in the USA. Court systems in the country are finding it more helpful to treat men and women who have ended up in the criminal justice system for drug related crimes, instead of penalizing them in vain with jail time and other such rulings. It has proven more helpful to address the problem of addiction more straightforwardly, than to invoke these sorts of penalties. The majority of who do not end up in drug and alcohol rehab will often turn right back up in the criminal justice system, while criminal justice clients in drug rehab generally don't fall back into drug use and have a better chance at remaining sober and out of the court system for good.
