The Veterans Court Model

The Veterans Court Model is a specialized judicial process designed to address legal issues involving military veterans, particularly those facing challenges such as mental health, substance abuse, or trauma related to their service. It aims to provide veterans with tailored support and treatment rather than defaulting to traditional sentencing. The court collaborates with treatment providers and community resources, emphasizing accountability and rehabilitation. This approach recognizes the unique experiences of veterans and seeks to help them reintegrate into society while addressing the underlying issues contributing to their legal problems.
