Criminal justice clients are a large portion of clients who are currently taking part in drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Wellfleet and in the USA. Court systems in the country are finding it more effective to rehab people who have wound up in the court system for crimes relating to drugs, instead of punishing them to no avail with jail time and other such rulings. It has proven more successful to deal with the issue of addiction directly, than to invoke such penalties. The majority of individuals who do not make their way to alcohol and drug rehabilitation will often turn right back up in the criminal justice system, whilst criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehab generally don't fall back into drug use and have a far better chance at staying abstinent and away from the court system completely.
