Drug Court programs provide comprehensive, integrated behavioral health services that work in conjunction with the judicial system. The purpose of drug court programs is to stop the abuse of alcohol and/or other drugs and related criminal and civil judicial actions.

The treatment team works in collaboration with judges, prosecutors, defense counsel, probation authorities, law enforcement, and an array of local service providers. Treatment is usually multi-phased, and is typically divided into a stabilization phase, an intensive phase, and a transition phase. During each phase, the treatment team is responsible for assessing the needs of the person served within the parameters of the legal sanctions imposed by the drug court. The treatment team, in a case management function, either directly provides or arranges for the provision of screening and assessment, detoxification, intensive outpatient treatment, outpatient, residential treatment, pharmacotherapy, self-help and advocacy, relapse prevention, and education regarding alcohol and other drugs.
