Criminal justice clients are a significant percentage of clientele who are currently taking part in drug and alcohol rehab centers in Marco Island and in the USA. Judges in the U.S. often find it more effective to rehab individuals who have ended up in the criminal justice system for drug related crimes, instead of punishing them to no avail with jail time and other penalties. It is proven to be more effective to deal with the issue of addiction directly, than to enforce these sorts of penalties. Most individuals who do not make their way to drug and alcohol rehabilitation will often wind back up in the criminal justice system, whilst criminal justice clients in drug treatment often don't make the same mistakes and have a better chance at remaining sober and out of the court system for good.
