Criminal justice clients in Pool make their way into alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities because they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were distributing drugs or were in the possession of or found to be high on drugs. Many judges put these criminal persons into the alcohol and drug rehabilitation system because they believe that rehabbing these individuals is more effective for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than sending them in jail with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be very successful not only in treating and rehabilitating this type of client in Pool, but also in helping them stay abstinent and in a number of instances away from the criminal justice system once and for all.
