Treatment Alternative Court

Body

For those who admit to having a drug and/or alcohol problem and want to make changes in their lives, Treatment Alternative Court (TAC) may be the answer. Through a coordinated strategy of court personnel, probation staff, and treatment providers, participants will receive substance use disorder evaluation, treatment, and supervision to help make healthier choices. 

The year long, pre-plea program is divided into 4 phases. Through the use of incentives and sanctions, the TAC team will monitor and help guide participants to keep on track with court and probation conditions, as well as head in the right direction of program completion. Charges may be eligible for dismissal at program commencement.
