Treatment Court

Treatment Court is a specialized legal program designed to help individuals facing criminal charges related to substance abuse or mental health issues. Instead of traditional punishment, participants engage in supervised treatment, counseling, and support services. The goal is to address the root causes of behavior, promote recovery, and reduce the likelihood of reoffending. Successful completion may lead to reduced charges or sentences, encouraging rehabilitation through accountability and ongoing care. Treatment Court emphasizes collaboration among judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and treatment providers to support long-term recovery and community safety.
