This collaborative justice court program debuted on Friday August 11th in Department 31. Research has shown that veterans who are experiencing post-traumatic stress disorders, military sexual trauma, traumatic brain injuries, substance abuse or other mental health disorders related to military service are uniquely positioned to benefit from treatment targeted to the root cause of criminal behavior. The goal of the Veterans Treatment Court is to resolve criminal cases through treatment and support tailored to the veteran's particular needs.
Come learn how your clients might benefit from this uniquely tailored approach.
Snacks will be served.
