Some judges put these convicted individuals into the alcohol and drug treatment system because they feel that treating them is more effective for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than placing them in jail with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be quite workable not only in healing and rehabilitating these criminal justice clients in Tiverton, Rhode Island, but also in helping them stay abstinent and in a lot of instances out of the criminal justice system for good.
