Criminal justice clients in Omaha often end up in alcohol and drug treatment programs because they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were found to be high on drugs. Many courts put these types of persons into the alcohol and drug rehabilitation system mainly due to the fact that they believe that rehabilitating them will be more productive for society and for the individual, rather than putting them behind bars with no rehab at all. This has been proven to be incredibly successful not only in healing and rehabilitating this type of client in Omaha, but also in helping them remain sober and in a number of situations away from the criminal justice system permanently.
