The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) awarded a $1,000,000 Project Grant under the Treatment Court Discretionary Grant Program (CFDA 16.585) to Craighead County, Arkansas to enhance the operations of the STAR DWI/DUI Court. The STAR Court is a post-adjudication DWI/DUI treatment court that serves up to 30 high-risk, high-need participants through a 16-18 month program. Grant funds will be used to expand the court's capacity to serve an additional 10 participants annually and improve alignment with National Association of Drug Court Professionals (NADCP) best practice standards in several areas. This includes enhancing access, treatment, services, and outcomes for the Hispanic community, which has been historically underserved. The grant will support activities like hiring specialized staff, providing training, improving access to treatment and recovery resources, conducting outreach, enhancing case management, and strengthening program evaluation.
