The Veterans Treatment Court Program is a federally funded program that supports state, local, and tribal efforts to plan, implement, or enhance the operations of veterans treatment courts. These courts effectively integrate evidence-based substance use disorder treatment, mandatory drug testing, incentives and sanctions, and recovery support services in judicially supervised court settings that have jurisdiction over veterans involved in the justice system who have substance use disorders, including a history of violence and PTSD as a result of their military service. Funding can also support efforts at the state level to assess, collect data, evaluate, train, and build or enhance local or tribal VTCs or to increase the identification and access to services for those underserved.
The primary objective of this initiative is to address critical service gaps among veterans and expand the use of the VTC Program in getting veterans who suffer from substance abuse and or mental/health issues appropriate treatment.

The Enlisted Association of the National Guard of the United States stands in support of all state, local, and federal initiatives to expand Veterans Treatment Court Programs.
