Résumé :
The effectiveness of adult Drug Courts is not a matter of conjecture. It is the product of more than two decades of exhaustive scientific research. From their inception, Drug Courts embraced science like no other criminal justice program. They endorsed best practices and evidence-based practices; invited evaluators to measure their outcomes; and encouraged federal agencies like NIDA, BJA, NIJ and CSAT, as well as a myriad of state agencies, to issue calls to the scientific community to closely examine the model and learn what makes it tick and how it might be improved. The result? We know beyond a reasonable doubt that Drug Courts significantly reduce drug use and crime and do so with substantial cost savings.
