Criminal justice clients in Williamson, WV. often end up in alcohol and drug treatment centers because they were found guilty of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were dealing drugs or were in the possession of or under the influence of drugs. Some judges put these criminal individuals into the drug and alcohol treatment system mainly due to the fact that they believe that rehabilitating these persons will be more productive for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than sending them in prison with no rehab at all. This has been established to be extremely successful not only in treating and rehabbing these criminal justice clients in Williamson, WV., but also in keeping them abstinent and in many cases away from the criminal justice system once and for all.
