Criminal justice clients in Wheeler, MS. often end up in drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs because they were found guilty of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were distributing drugs or were in the possession of or under the influence of drugs. Some judges put these types of persons into the alcohol and drug rehab system because they consider that rehabbing these persons is more helpful for society and for the individual, rather than placing them in jail with no rehab at all. This has been verified to be extremely effective not only in treating and rehabbing this type of client in Wheeler, MS., but also in helping them stay sober and in a number of cases out of the criminal justice system for good.
