Queens Treatment Courts Enhanced Service Project - The New York State Unified Court System's five felony Queens Treatment Courts aim to expand participation of adult felony drug court participants with substance use disorders or co-occurring substance use and mental disorders in Queens County, NY by 40 individuals annually, totaling 200 over five years. Additionally, we seek to enhance the capacity of these courts to engage and retain participants by integrating substance abuse and/or co-occurring treatment with recovery support services. Our comprehensive services will include Treatment Alternatives for Safer Communities (TASC) Case Management, motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, dialectical-behavioral skills therapy (DBT), cognitive remediation therapy (CRT), harm reduction strategies, peer support, and referrals for infectious disease testing and treatment, smoking cessation, and aftercare planning. Through these initiatives, we aim to address the complex needs of participants and promote sustained recovery.
