Abstract:
Drug Treatment Courts, which began in North Carolina in 1995 and expanded in 2001, operate on referrals from the traditional courts, alternative sentencing programs and probation officers. They are geared toward non-violent, high-risk, repeat drug offenders, most of whom have been charged with misdemeanors.
