Criminal justice clients in Newark often end up in alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were found to be high on drugs. Some judges put these criminal persons into the drug rehab system mainly due to the fact that they consider that rehabilitating them is more productive for society and for the individual, rather than putting them in prison with no rehab at all. This has been proven to be incredibly successful not only in treating and rehabilitating this type of client in Newark, CA., but also in helping them remain off of drugs and in a lot of instances away from the criminal justice system permanently.
