by wpengine / Friday, 05 May 2017 / Published in Uncategorized

These ten components include (1) Veterans Treatment Court will integrate alcohol treatment, drug treatment, and mental health services with justice system case processing; (2) Using a non-adversarial approach, prosecution and defense counsel promote public safety while protecting participants’ due process rights; (3) Eligible participants are identified early and promptly placed in the Veterans Court program; (4) Veterans Court provide access to a continuum of alcohol, drug, mental health and other related treatment and rehabilitation services; (5) Abstinence is monitored by frequent alcohol and other drug testing; (6) A coordinated strategy governs Veterans Court responses to participants’ compliance; (7) Ongoing judicial interaction with each Veteran is essential; (8) Monitoring and evaluation measure the achievement of program goals and gauge effectiveness; (9) Continuing interdisciplinary education promotes effective Veteran’s Court planning, implementation, and operations; and (10) Forging partnerships among Veteran’s Court, Veteran’s Administration, public agencies, and community-based organizations generates local support and enhances Veteran’s Court effectiveness.
