Criminal justice clients in Corpus Christi make their way into alcohol and drug treatment programs due to the fact they were found guilty of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were selling drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Some judges put these types of individuals into the alcohol and drug rehabilitation system because they consider that treating these individuals will be more helpful for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than putting them in jail with no rehab at all. This has been proven to be extremely successful not only in treating and rehabbing this type of client in Corpus Christi, but also in helping them remain sober and in many cases out of the criminal justice system permanently.
