Criminal justice clients in Neodesha make their way into drug rehabilitation programs because they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Many judges put these criminal individuals into the alcohol and drug rehab system mainly due to the fact that they consider that treating these persons is more helpful for the culture at large and for the person, rather than sending them in prison with no treatment at all. This has been established to be very successful not only in treating and rehabbing this type of client in Neodesha, but also in helping them remain abstinent and in a number of cases away from the criminal justice system for good.
