Criminal justice clients are a significant percentage of clientele who take part in drug and alcohol treatment centers in Vantage, Washington and across the nation. Judicial systems around the country often find it more advantageous to treat people who have found their way into the court system for drug related crimes, instead of punishing them in vain with time in jail and other penalties. It is proven to be more helpful to address the problem of drug addiction more straightforwardly, rather than enforce such penalties. Most who do not wind up in drug and alcohol rehab will typically wind back up in the criminal justice system, whilst criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehabilitation often don't make the same mistakes and have a better chance at staying abstinent and away from the court system entirely.
