Drug Court Training and Technical Assistance
Program Funding
Annual program obligations reported to SAM.gov.
Program Objective
The Administration supports a comprehensive approach to reducing drug use and its consequences. Drug courts work to divert individuals with substance use disorders from the criminal justice system by offering services for evidence-based treatment and rehabilitation, and incentives to encourage participation, such as dismissal of charges or reduction in jail time for successful completion. The Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) will award one or more cooperative agreements to establish and implement training, technical assistance, and other evidence-based resources for drug court professionals to improve the effectiveness of post-arrest criminal justice interventions and the provision of evidence-based treatment to individuals with substance use disorders who are arrested or under some form of criminal justice supervision, including medication assisted treatment.
