Criminal justice clients in Anderson make their way into alcohol and drug rehab centers due to the fact they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were distributing drugs or were in the possession of or under the influence of drugs. Many courts put these convicted persons into the alcohol and drug treatment system mainly due to the fact that they feel that rehabilitating them will be more productive for society and for the individual, rather than placing them in prison with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be incredibly successful not only in treating and rehabbing this type of client in Anderson, but also in helping them stay off of drugs and in many instances away from the criminal justice system permanently.
