How the Court System Can Best Serve Veterans

Veterans treatment courts offer an innovative approach to addressing the unique needs of justice-involved veterans, but they are not available in every jurisdiction, and they are not a good fit for every individual. In this program, veterans court judges will discuss practical approaches for working with veterans, including case management and monitoring. It will also cover referrals and strategies for increasing enrollment.
