Criminal justice clients in Dunnigan, California often end up in drug rehabilitation centers due to the fact they were found guilty of crimes relating to drugs, whether they were dealing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were high on drugs. Many judges put these convicted persons into the drug and alcohol rehab system mainly due to the fact that they feel that rehabilitating them will be more effective for society and for the individual, rather than placing them behind bars with no treatment at all. This has been proven to be extremely successful not only in treating and rehabbing these criminal justice clients in Dunnigan, but also in helping them stay abstinent and in a number of cases out of the criminal justice system for good.
