Criminal justice clients are a considerable percentage of clientele who are currently taking part in drug and alcohol treatment programs in Matfield Green and across the nation. Judges in the country are finding it more effective to treat people who have found their way into the court system for drug related crimes, instead of penalizing them in vain with jail time and other such rulings. It is proven to be more helpful to deal with the problem of drug addiction directly, than to enforce these sorts of penalties. The majority of who do not end up in alcohol and drug rehab will frequently wind back up in the criminal justice system, while criminal justice clients in drug treatment generally don't make the same mistakes and have a much better chance at staying sober and out of the court system entirely.
