Rehabbing persons who are addicted and dependent to drugs and/or alcohol and have ended up in the criminal justice system has proven to be effective in curbing future drug related crimes for people that do take advantage of treatment programs. For criminal justice clients in Oxford who do agree to take part in treatment in drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers, even un-voluntarily as is often ordered by the judge, these persons have a far better chance at dealing with the root of the issue so that they can remain off of drugs and away from being implicated in drug related criminal acts. The costs to the criminal justice system having to do with these drug related offenses is also impacted positively when criminal justice clients are rehabilitated in drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Oxford instead of jail time or other harsh punishment.
