Drug Court

The Drug Court aims to break the cycle of substance misuse and offending by facilitating treatment programs for people with significant drug problems.

Operating out of the Magistrates Courts at Perth, the Drug Court aims to:

• support participants in addressing their substance misuse and associated lifestyle
• reduce the imprisonment of those with substance misuse issues by addressing problems that are integral to offending behaviour
• reduce post-treatment supervision requirements for participants by having them address relevant requirements at an earlier stage in the process
