Criminal justice clients in Newsoms make their way into drug treatment programs because they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were dealing drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Many courts put these types of persons into the drug rehabilitation system because they feel that rehabilitating these persons will be more effective for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than sending them behind bars with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be very workable not only in helping and rehabbing these criminal justice clients in Newsoms, but also in helping them stay sober and in many situations out of the criminal justice system for good.
