Criminal justice clients are a large percentage of clientele who are currently taking part in drug rehab facilities in Edinburg and across the nation. Judicial systems in the country often find it more beneficial to rehab people who have wound up in the criminal justice system for drug related crimes, rather than punishing them to no avail with time in jail and other such rulings. It has proven more helpful to deal with the issue of addiction directly, rather than enforce such penalties. The majority of who do not wind up in alcohol and drug rehabilitation will often wind back up in the criminal justice system, whilst criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol treatment often don't fall back into drug use and have a much better chance at remaining abstinent and away from the court system completely.
