Treatment Court, Rehabilitation, and Recovery Act of 2021

The Treatment Court, Rehabilitation, and Recovery Act of 2021 aims to improve and expand the federal grant program that supports local drug courts for nonviolent offenders. The bill would require these courts to follow national best practice standards and provide participants with evidence-based clinical assessments and treatment services for substance use disorders. By focusing on rehabilitation rather than traditional incarceration, the legislation seeks to increase the effectiveness of recovery programs and reduce recidivism rates within the justice system.
