Criminal justice clients are a significant percentage of clients who take part in drug rehab facilities in Borrego Springs, California and in the USA. Judges in the U.S. are finding it more advantageous to treat people who have ended up in the court system for drug related crimes, rather than punishing them in vain with jail time and other penalties. It is proven to be more helpful to address the problem of drug addiction more straightforwardly, rather than enforce such penalties. The majority of who do not end up in drug rehabilitation will frequently wind back up in the criminal justice hamster wheel, while criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehabilitation generally don't fall back into drug use and have a better chance at staying abstinent and out of the court system completely.
