Criminal justice clients are a significant percentage of clientele who are currently taking part in drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Rogers City and across the nation. Judges around the country often find it more advantageous to rehabilitate men and women who have found their way into the criminal justice system for drug related crimes, rather than penalizing them in vain with jail time and other penalties. It has proven more effective to tackle the problem of drug addiction directly, than to enforce such penalties. Most who do not end up in alcohol and drug rehabilitation will often turn right back up in the criminal justice system, whilst criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehab often don't make the same mistakes and have a far better chance at staying abstinent and out of the court system for good.
