	Drug courts reduce time in the criminal ~~just~~ system and provide treatment to individuals instead of punishment. As of 2023, there were more than 3,800 drug courts across the United States. The innovation of drug courts emerged in the late 1980s, when professionals recognized the importance of treating substance use and mental health in prevention of relapse and recidivism. Drug courts aim to reduce drug use relapse and criminal recidivism through a variety of services. These services include risk and needs assessment, judicial interaction, monitoring and supervision, graduated sanctions and incentives, treatment, and various rehabilitation services. <ref>https://www.ojp.gov/pdffiles1/nij/238527.pdf</ref>		Drug courts reduce time in the criminal justice system and provide treatment to individuals instead of punishment.

			'''Impact of Mature Drug Court over 10 Years of Operation: Recidivism and Costs.''' This study examined the impact and costs of a primarily pre-plea drug court on the total population of drug court-eligible offenders over a 10-year period in Portland, Oregon. Results included reduced recidivism for drug court participants up to 14 years after drug court entry compared to eligible offenders that did not participate. Drug court judges that worked longer with the drug court had better participant outcomes. Judges that rotated through the drug court twice had better participant outcomes the second time than the first. Compared to traditional criminal justice system costs, there was an average of $1,392 lower cost per drug court participant. Reduced recidivism and other long-term program outcomes resulted in public savings of $79 million over 10 years. <ref>https://nij.ojp.gov/library/publications/impact-mature-drug-court-over-10-years-operation-recidivism-and-costs</ref>

			'''Evaluating Treatment Drug Courts in Kansas City, Missouri and Pensacola, Florida: Final Reports for Phase I and Phase II.''' Using retrospective data, researchers found that drug courts reduced recidivism among program participants in contrast to comparable probationers. This study found that within a two-year follow-up period, the felony re-arrest rate decreased from 40 percent before the drug court to 12 percent after the drug court started in one county, and the felony re-arrest rate decreased from 50 percent to 35 percent in another county. <ref>https://nij.ojp.gov/library/publications/evaluating-treatment-drug-courts-kansas-city-missouri-and-pensacola-florida</ref>

	'''The Urban Institute Justice Policy Center''' conducted a five-year longitudinal study for NIJ. It examined twenty-three drug courts and six comparison groups in eight states: Florida, Georgia, Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Carolina and Washington. The study titled, "Multisite Adult Drug Court Evaluation (MADCE)" went beyond simply measuring recidivism and examined multiple outcomes (crime, drug use, socioeconomic outcomes, family functioning, and mental health). It found that drug courts produce significant reductions in drug relapse and criminal behavior and that drug court participants experience select psychosocial benefits in other areas of their lives. <ref>https://www.ojp.gov/pdffiles1/nij/grants/237108.pdf</ref>		'''The Urban Institute Justice Policy Center''' conducted a five-year longitudinal study for NIJ.
