Criminal justice clients are a considerable portion of clientele who are currently taking part in alcohol and drug treatment programs in Seven Points, Texas and in the USA. Court systems in the U.S. are finding it more advantageous to treat people who have found their way into the court system for drug related crimes, instead of punishing them to no avail with time in jail and other such rulings. It has proven more effective to tackle the trouble of drug or alcohol addiction directly, rather than invoke these sorts of penalties. Most who do not make their way to alcohol and drug treatment will often wind back up in the criminal justice system, while criminal justice clients in drug rehab often don't fall back into drug use and have a much better chance at remaining abstinent and out of the court system entirely.
