Criminal justice clients in Yoder often end up in drug and alcohol treatment centers because they were convicted of drug related crimes, whether they were dealing drugs or had drugs in their possession or were under the influence of drugs. Many courts put these convicted persons into the alcohol and drug rehabilitation system mainly due to the fact that they believe that rehabilitating these individuals will be more effective for the culture at large and for the individual, rather than placing them in prison with no rehabilitation at all. This has been established to be incredibly successful not only in healing and rehabbing this type of client in Yoder, but also in keeping them off of drugs and in a number of cases away from the criminal justice system for good.
