While I oppose forcing people into treatment, I would make treatment options more accessible by making them free of charge, and making many more facilities.
If someone breaks a law due to a drug addiction, then I wouldn't send them to a normal jail, rather I would send them to a clinic of sorts where they would be provided with daily methadone. They can chose to be rehabilitated, which would lead to an earlier release, or stay on methadone for the duration of their sentence.
Often with drug use, it can be very hard for the addict to break free. Their brains change so much. It usually is very tragic.
