National Center for Drug Court Justice

The National Center for Drug Court Justice (NCDCJ) is an organization focused on improving the effectiveness of drug courts in the United States. Drug courts are specialized justice programs that aim to help individuals struggling with substance abuse rather than just punishing them. The NCDCJ provides research, training, and resources to legal professionals and treatment providers to enhance the support available for those in recovery. By promoting best practices, the center seeks to reduce recidivism and improve both public safety and the lives of individuals dealing with addiction.
