Idaho, like many other states
throughout the nation, has come to view
drug courts as an effective means of
reducing substance abuse and related
crime. Drug courts utilize many
common and established practices such as
drug testing, close supervision of
offenders, substance abuse treatment,
and judicial monitoring but combine them
in a unique way to better address the
needs of the offender, the justice
system, and the community. The
specifics of just how these practices
are carried out may vary by drug court,
particularly as practitioners continue
to experiment with techniques that
further drug court development and as
local jurisdictions tailor them to the
types of offenders, crimes, and
resources within a given community.
However, all drug courts are based upon
key, underlying principles that define
them as drug courts and ultimately
account for their success.
