Criminal justice clients in Blossom make their way into drug rehabilitation programs due to the fact they were found guilty of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were dealing drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Many courts put these convicted persons into the drug and alcohol rehabilitation system because they consider that treating them is more effective for society and for the individual, rather than sending them in prison with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be quite effective not only in treating and rehabilitating this type of client in Blossom, but also in keeping them abstinent and in many situations away from the criminal justice system once and for all.
