The Bexar County, Texas Misdemeanor Veterans Treatment Court was awarded a $1,000,000 Project Grant over 4 years from the U.S. Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Assistance Veterans Treatment Court Discretionary Grant Program (CFDA 16.043). The grant will support the establishment, implementation, and enhancement of the county's Veterans Treatment Court, which serves an active caseload of 180 justice-involved veterans and aims to reach over 500 participants during the grant period. Key products and services to be delivered include expanding treatment options such as medication-assisted treatment, building out the treatment court team, and participating in a national study to develop standardized screening and assessment tools for Veterans Treatment Courts across the country. The grant funding will allow the court to comprehensively address the unique needs of its target population, which includes veterans and active-duty military personnel with pending misdemeanor offenses, brain injuries, and/or behavioral health disorders including PTSD, depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders.
