Criminal justice clients in Willows, California often end up in drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs because they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were selling drugs or were in the possession of or under the influence of drugs. Some courts put these types of persons into the alcohol and drug rehab system mainly due to the fact that they feel that rehabbing these individuals will be more helpful for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than sending them in jail with no rehab at all. This has been established to be quite effective not only in helping and rehabilitating this type of client in Willows, CA., but also in keeping them abstinent and in a number of situations away from the criminal justice system permanently.
