Drug Court: A Successful Prevention for Recidivism

Leann Howell
Brescia University,

With the effects of the War on Drugs still evident in the number of drug addicted offenders committed to the prison system in the U.S., the need for effective prevention of recidivism is apparent. Drug Treatment Courts (Drug Court Programs) are an increasingly popular alternate sentencing option for offenders charged with non-violent drug related crimes. Current research and judicial experience indicate that Drug Court Programs are successful in reducing/preventing re-offense of drug related crimes for those participants who complete the program.

Klíčová slova: Drug Court, Drug Court Programs, Drug Treatment Courts, Recidivism.
