Criminal justice clients in Struthers often end up in drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities because they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Some judges put these types of persons into the drug rehabilitation system mainly due to the fact that they feel that rehabilitating these persons is more productive for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than sending them behind bars with no rehab at all. This has been proven to be very successful not only in healing and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in Struthers, but also in keeping them abstinent and in a number of cases away from the criminal justice system permanently.
