Criminal justice clients in Brazoria make their way into alcohol and drug rehab programs due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Many courts put these convicted individuals into the alcohol and drug rehab system because they believe that rehabilitating these persons is more helpful for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than placing them in jail with no treatment at all. This has been established to be incredibly workable not only in helping and rehabbing this type of client in Brazoria, but also in helping them remain sober and in many cases away from the criminal justice system once and for all.
