Criminal justice clients in Jacksonville make their way into drug rehab facilities due to the fact they were found guilty of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Some judges put these criminal individuals into the drug and alcohol rehab system because they believe that treating them will be more effective for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than putting them behind bars with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be extremely successful not only in healing and rehabbing this type of client in Jacksonville, but also in helping them stay sober and in many situations out of the criminal justice system permanently.
