Criminal justice clients in Mount Sterling, IL. make their way into alcohol and drug treatment centers because they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were dealing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Many courts put these criminal persons into the drug rehab system because they believe that rehabbing them is more effective for the culture at large and for the person, rather than placing them behind bars with no rehab at all. This has been verified to be very effective not only in healing and rehabbing this type of client in Mount Sterling, IL., but also in helping them remain abstinent and in many situations away from the criminal justice system permanently.
