I think the rehabilitation programs are extremely important and should be encouraged. There's an opportunity to look at expanding on successful programs. What is key in rehabilitation for drug issues is matching the right type of treatment to the particular reasons for the addiction of the offender. Not every treatment program works equally effectively on every offender. So I think there is a broad scope for actually improving or testing innovative approaches that take into account cultural relevance, gender issues, and a variety of other things.
