We Have No Veterans District Courts in Massachusetts yet! Join Us To Change This!


What are Veterans Treatment Courts?
Veterans Treatment Courts are hybrid Drug and Mental Health Courts that use the Drug Court model to serve veterans struggling with addiction, serious mental illness and/or co-occurring disorders. They promote sobriety, recovery and stability through a coordinated response that involves cooperation and collaboration with the traditional partners found in Drug and Mental Health Courts, with the addition of theU.S. Department of Veterans Affairs health care networks, the Veterans' Benefits Administration, volunteer veteran mentors and veterans and veterans' family support organizations.

NADCP is working with national experts and our federal partners to help the Drug Court community



VETERANS COURTS ARE PRESENT IN 18 STATES AND IN 60 COMMUNITIES AROUND THE COUNTRY, BUT NOT IN MASSACHUSETTS!
