The First Judicial District Court operates an Adult Drug Court, an Adult Treatment Court and a Pre-Trial Services Program.

Adult Drug Court is an intensive, court-supervised, substance-abuse treatment program that defendants can be ordered to successfully complete as a condition of their probation. The Adult Treatment Court is also an intensive, court-supervised treatment program that addresses both substance abuse and mental health issues. The programs are a minimum of nine- to twelve-months in length, and are designed to treat a participant’s drug or alcohol addiction and mental health condition, and to supervise and monitor a participant’s compliance with the programs’ requirements, including drug and alcohol testing, individual or group counseling, education, employment and community service.
