DRUG TREATMENT COURTThe purpose of drug treatment court is to break the vicious cycle of drug abuse and related criminal activity. Studies have shown that in recent years arrests for drugs related crimes have more than doubled. Throughout the nation, there are some growing perceptions that drug addiction is an illness not a crime, and that substance abusers need detoxification and Drug rehabilitation, not jail. Drug treatment court offers individuals who have committed drug or alcohol related crimes, a choice of drug rehab instead of jail time. Drug Treatment courts can drop the original charges, suspend a sentence, or offer a lesser penalty in exchange for successful completion of a drug rehab program. A specific set of rules and expectations of the addict's performance is strictly applied and closely monitored, by the drug rehab center and the drug treatment court. This can include random urine testing as well as drug treatment court appearances. Consequences for a noncompliance could result in more court appearances or reinstatement of the original sentence. Evidence has shown from states offering drug courts that these drug rehab programs are successfully helping addicts enslaved by heroin, Oxycontin, methamphetamine, crack/cocaine, alcohol, and other addictive drugs overcome old drug taking behaviors and learn to live sober productive lives. Success rates very depending on the addict and the drug rehab program selected. Drug treatment courts can be more effective than traditional courts for substance abusers who commit nonviolent crimes to acquire more drugs to support their addiction.
