Criminal justice clients in Newhall, California often end up in alcohol and drug treatment programs due to the fact they were found guilty of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were selling drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Many judges put these types of persons into the drug rehabilitation system mainly due to the fact that they believe that rehabbing these persons is more effective for the culture at large and for the person, rather than placing them behind bars with no rehab at all. This has been proven to be quite workable not only in helping and rehabilitating this type of client in Newhall, but also in helping them stay sober and in a number of situations out of the criminal justice system for good.
