What is a treatment court?

A Treatment Court, also known as a problem-solving court or drug court, is a specialized court designed to address underlying issues such as substance use disorders or mental health conditions that contribute to criminal behavior. Rather than focusing solely on punishment, Treatment Courts combine judicial supervision, treatment services, and regular drug testing to help participants recover and avoid future offenses. These courts involve collaboration among judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, treatment providers, and probation officers. The goal is to reduce recidivism and improve the overall well-being of participants, while also enhancing public safety.
