Adult Drug Court Treatment Program

The Montgomery County Circuit Court Adult Drug Court Program is a voluntary program that offers offenders with drug/alcohol-dependency problems a new opportunity to break the chain of the cycle of drug/alcohol addiction and crime through intensive treatment and monitoring, as well as direct attention from the court. The mission of the Adult Drug Court Program is to eliminate substance abuse, crime, and their consequence, by forging continuing partnerships with the court, health treatment providers, concerned community organizations and law enforcement. Leveraging its partnerships and authority, the court will direct substance-abusing offenders into evaluation and treatment to achieve personal responsibility and productive citizenship. The program consists of three phases and the minimum length of treatment is 20 months, but the actual length of stay is dependent on a participant’s progress.
