About the Course:
This report provides summary results from the National Survey on Drug Courts and Other Problem Solving Courts conducted by the National Drug Court Institute. In addition to reporting the type and aggregate number of operational drug courts and other problem solving court programs throughout the United States, sections are dedicated to major drug court research scholarship, as well as state-specific drug court legislation. It also provides key information about drug court models, populations, and capacity, as well as the number of confirmed drug-free babies born to active female drug court participants.
