Criminal justice clients in Whitesboro often end up in drug treatment facilities because they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were distributing drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Many judges put these convicted persons into the alcohol and drug rehab system mainly due to the fact that they feel that treating these individuals will be more effective for the culture at large and for the person, rather than sending them behind bars with no rehab at all. This has been established to be extremely workable not only in helping and rehabilitating this type of client in Whitesboro, but also in helping them stay sober and in a number of cases out of the criminal justice system for good.
