The U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Assistance awarded a $974,998 Project Grant under the Treatment Court Discretionary Grant Program (CFDA 16.585) to the Judiciary Courts of the State of Michigan, doing business as the 41B District Court. The grant will fund enhancements to expand treatment capacity, add recovery housing, integrate medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and provide other evidence-based services for approximately 40 high-risk, high-need participants per year over the 4-year award period. Expected outcomes include reduced recidivism, fewer overdoses, stronger families, and rehabilitation to help participants become productive community members. The 41B District Court previously received a $725,385 Formula Grant under the same program to support its Veterans Treatment Court, which provides substance abuse services for up to 40 additional veterans over 4 years.

The purpose of these enhancements is to expand capacity, add recovery housing options, integrate, and expand evidence-based services (including mat) and practices that support families, add inpatient treatment, offer naloxone training, assign peer and family coaches to each participant, add extended drug panels, and add an evidence-based screening tool. Expected outcomes include reduced recidivism, reduced overdoses, stronger families, and rehabilitation for those who are HR/HN and dependent upon drugs and/or alcohol so that they may become productive community members. These enhancements will reduce crime in our jurisdiction and ultimately save lives. The service area includes the charter township of clinton, the charter township of harrison, and the city of mount clemens. We are in a suburb of detroit, which is 18TH on the list of historically disadvantaged communities (poverty.umich.EDU) and is part of the TRI-county area. When possible, we will accept transfers from outside of our jurisdiction. The intended beneficiaries of these enhancements are (1) those who have found themselves in the criminal justice system due to substance abuse dependence and (2) the members of the communities in which these individuals reside. The expected number of HR/HN participants proposed to receive services is 40 per year for 4 years, for 160 total.
