Criminal justice clients in Mooresboro make their way into drug and alcohol rehab facilities because they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were selling drugs or were in the possession of or under the influence of drugs. Many judges put these convicted persons into the drug and alcohol rehabilitation system mainly due to the fact that they feel that rehabbing them will be more helpful for society and for the person, rather than sending them in jail with no rehab at all. This has been established to be extremely successful not only in treating and rehabilitating this type of client in Mooresboro, but also in keeping them abstinent and in many situations away from the criminal justice system permanently.
