Criminal justice clients in New Boston often end up in alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities because they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Some judges put these criminal persons into the drug treatment system because they consider that rehabbing these individuals will be more helpful for the culture at large and for the person, rather than putting them in jail with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be extremely effective not only in treating and rehabilitating this type of client in New Boston, but also in helping them remain sober and in a number of cases out of the criminal justice system for good.
