Accountability Court
An Accountability Court is a specialized court that handles cases involving individuals who have a tendency to commit crimes related to substance abuse or behavioral issues. Its goal is to address the root causes of such behavior through a combination of legal proceedings and treatment programs, with the aim of helping offenders improve their lives and reduce repeat offenses. Instead of purely punishing, these courts focus on rehabilitation, providing offenders with opportunities for counseling, education, and support while ensuring they meet legal requirements.
