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.

Pima County will use the enhancing adult drug court services, coordination, and treatment grant to provide clients with evidence-based services to achieve the following two objectives: enhance the Pima County Drug Court by ensuring all participants have access to drug treatment and wrap-around recovery support services and expand the Pima County Drug Court by adding a Drug Treatment Alternative to Prison Program (DTAP) providing residential drug treatment and wrap-around recovery services in lieu of prison.
