Categories
- Category 1: Juvenile Drug Treatment Court Planning and Implementation Program
- The goal of this category is to support jurisdictions that identified a need to establish a JDTC.
- The objective is to support new JDTCs in providing treatment and accountability to youth with substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders by offering access to treatment and recovery services that ensure equal access to services that will ultimately enhance public safety and promote positive outcomes for youth.
- Category 2: Juvenile Drug Treatment Court Enhancement Program
- The goal of this category is to enhance and expand existing JDTCs to be responsive to the evidence-based Juvenile Drug Treatment Court Guidelines. Successful applicants will be expected to provide a coordinated, multisystem approach designed to combine the judicial oversight authority of JDTCs with effective substance use disorder treatment services to reduce recidivism and substance use.
- The objectives of this program are to improve access and availability of adolescent (and family when appropriate) substance use disorder treatment services to a larger number of clients, increase equal access to and retention within the treatment court program, increase the number of individuals served, and/or propose enhancements to improve the quality of treatment services by adding workforce development strategies, evidence-based treatment approaches, or new treatment services to address unmet or emerging trends.
