Criminal justice clients in Playa Del Rey, CA. make their way into drug and alcohol treatment facilities because they were convicted of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were distributing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Many judges put these convicted individuals into the drug and alcohol rehabilitation system because they feel that rehabilitating these individuals will be more effective for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than sending them in prison with no rehabilitation at all. This has been proven to be incredibly successful not only in healing and rehabbing this type of client in Playa Del Rey, California, but also in helping them remain off of drugs and in many instances away from the criminal justice system permanently.
