Criminal justice clients are a significant percentage of clients who are currently taking part in drug rehabilitation centers in Mount Zion and in the USA. Court systems in the U.S. often find it more advantageous to treat people who have found their way into the criminal justice system for crimes relating to drugs, instead of penalizing them in vain with jail time and other such rulings. It has proven more successful to deal with the problem of drug addiction directly, rather than enforce these sorts of penalties. The majority of individuals who do not wind up in drug rehabilitation will often wind back up in the criminal justice hamster wheel, while criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehabilitation generally don't fall back into drug use and have a far better chance at remaining sober and away from the court system for good.
