Veterans Court

Specialty courts have been created around the country as an alternative to traditional prosecution of cases. These courts focus on mental health, substance abuse, young adults, or other specialized groups, creating a specific community-based treatment program to rehabilitate offenders. Veterans courts have become more popular as a way to treat non-violent, veteran offenders without incarceration. Watch this video.
