Criminal justice clients in San Jose, California make their way into alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs due to the fact they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or were in the possession of or high on drugs. Some judges put these convicted persons into the drug rehabilitation system because they consider that treating them is more productive for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than placing them in prison with no treatment at all. This has been established to be extremely successful not only in treating and rehabbing these criminal justice clients in San Jose, CA., but also in helping them stay off of drugs and in a number of instances away from the criminal justice system for good.
