Family and Juvenile Drug Court

Family and Juvenile Drug Courts are specialized court programs designed to help protect children and support families affected by substance abuse. They focus on addressing the underlying drug issues of parents or guardians while ensuring the child's safety and well-being. Participants typically undergo treatment, regular drug testing, and court supervision, with the goal of reducing substance use, strengthening family stability, and preventing child removal from the home. These courts aim to promote accountability and provide coordinated services, offering a structured pathway for recovery and family reunification when possible.
