Clients are 54 to 58 less likely than other addicts to commit new crimes to support their habit anything from shoplifting to breaking into cars. Its being replicated throughout the country. Its about preventing crime. It isnt that the individual is the problem, its that theyre the ones taking up your 911 service calls, theyre in your hospitals, in your treatment beds. You have to look at each individual and find out, why are you here . Why do you remain here . I think theres somebody underneath the car at the very end.

Reporter but najja doesnt give up on her. This is all part of the program. Its just a matter of hanging in there with them. Staying in communication. Just letting her go through her own process, just being there. What do you say to someone who says, i dont want my tax dollars providing support to someone who continues to use illegal drugs. The amount of money it takes to funnel the addicts through the system simply for being addicted is way more and is actually costing taxpayers more dollars than what this program is costing to give them the opportunity to do Something Different with their life than sit in a prison cell or jail cell. Reporter we check in a few months later. Turinas now on methadone and working to rebuild the relationship with her daughter. Thats great. I tell her frequently, i forgive you.
