 What is a Drug Court?  Drug Courts are this nation’s most effective justice intervention for seriously drug addicted offenders. By leveraging the authority of the court, Drug Courts supervise participants closely while keeping them in treatment long enough to transform into sober, employed, tax-paying members of their community.   Now, Drug Courts and Veterans Treatment Courts are serving justice-involved veterans, helping them to connect with the benefits and services earned through military service.
