The Enhancing Adult Drug Court Services, Coordination, and Treatment Grant Program is designed to assist states, state courts, local courts, counties, other units of local government, or Indian tribal governments to implement comprehensive strategies for enhancing drug court capacity by bridging access to both criminal justice and substance abuse treatment funds. The program supports the development and establishment of drug courts for substance-abusing adults and that enhance drug court services, coordination, and substance abuse treatment and recovery support services. Drug court programs funded by the Enhancing Adult Drug Court Services, Coordination, and Treatment Grant Program are required by law to target nonviolent criminal offenders.

Comal County will use the enhancing adult drug court services, coordination, and treatment grant to expand the substance abuse components of the Comal County Drug Court in the following three areas: evaluation of substance abuse programming, psychological services to screen and assess for co-occurring disorders, and recovery support services to address the holistic needs of the participants.
