Adult Drug Courts offer a specially designed court calendar or docket, the purposes of which are to achieve a reduction in recidivism and substance abuse among nonviolent substance abusing offenders and to increase the offender’s likelihood of successful habilitation through early, continuous, and intense judicially supervised treatment, mandatory periodic drug testing, community supervision, and use of appropriate sanctions and other rehabilitation services.

A Drug Court Judicial Benchbook providing key guidelines that will help judges improve client outcomes and increase cost savings is available through the National Drug Court Institute (NDCI).
