Criminal justice clients in Steens, Mississippi make their way into drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Many judges put these criminal individuals into the drug rehab system mainly due to the fact that they feel that rehabilitating these persons will be more productive for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than placing them in jail with no rehabilitation at all. This has been verified to be very successful not only in helping and rehabbing this type of client in Steens, Mississippi, but also in helping them remain sober and in many situations out of the criminal justice system once and for all.
