Court Facts:78% of those incarcerated in America have a
substance abuse problem.
Drug Treatment Court is a voluntary program that
includes weekly appearances before a DTC Judge, intense drug
rehabilitation services and frequent drug testing to monitor the
defendant's progress.
DTC separates non-violent offenders with
substance abuse problems from the more violent offenders who
require incarceration.
Recidivism of DTC participants is substantially
lower than that of offenders who do not participate in DTC
DTC generates cost savings from reduced
jail/prison time, reduced criminality and lower criminal justice
system cost. There is an estimated $10 savings for every $1
spent on Drug Treatment Court.
