Does This Happen in Other Counties? Observations from Arizona’s Treatment Courts

When challenges arise, one of the first questions is, “How do other treatment courts handle that?” With that in mind, experienced treatment court team members from around the state will discuss challenges their respective programs face regarding engagement and supervision of clients, treatment, fidelity to best practices, and incentives and sanctions. Panelists will share how they respond to challenges, what successes or failures they have experienced, and will encourage the audience to share their experiences as well.
