Veterans Treatment Court
Veterans treatment courts are an alternative to incarceration for military veterans and service members whose involvement in the justice system is rooted in a substance use disorder, mental health disorder, or trauma. These courts connect veterans in crisis with the local, state, and federal benefits and treatment services available to them through their military service.
Most veterans are strengthened by their service, but some struggle to engage or re-engage with civilian life. When veterans and service members grappling with substance use, mental health, or trauma become involved in the justice system, veterans treatment courts ensure that they have the opportunity for treatment and restoration.
Mission
The mission of the 13th Judicial Circuit Veterans Treatment Court Program is to help meet the needs of Veterans who have been identified in the criminal justice system with substance abuse and/or mental health issues. This treatment court program will provide the Veteran participant with the opportunity to lead a productive and law-abiding life through a comprehensive treatment program and judicial supervision. Veteran participants will be provided services that address substance abuse, mental health issues, unemployment, homelessness, and medical needs.
