WHAT IS DRUG COURT?
Drug Court programs
A Drug Court is a specialized court that offers offenders who suffer from addiction a chance at treatment services in lieu of prosecution.
Drug Court does work.
- The Drug Court program typically lasts between 9 and 15 months, commencing with Residential treatment and progressing to Outpatient care.
- Under the supervision of a judge, treatment professionals play a key role in assessing the level of care needed for each participant.
- Regularly updated progress reports keep the judge informed of the individual's treatment progress.
- Completion of the program signifies a successful transition to a life of recovery and the possibility of reduced or dismissed sentences.
Wildcat Recovery does not guarantee individual outcomes as we are a service provider, and only make recommendations based on patient progress. It is the courts that make any final determinations.
Who Qualifies for Drug Court?
Eligibility for a Drug Court Program depends on an individual's charges, criminal justice history, substance use disorder history, willingness to change, and other factors.
ELIGIBILITY
First Interaction
Typically, individuals first connect with the Drug Court through a referral from their attorney and consult with the Wildcat Recovery court liaisons in the courtroom.
Screening & Evaluation
Screening and assessment are mandatory. Once the eligibility criteria are satisfied, the Judge will notify the individual of the participation requirements, and the client will be enrolled.
