FAMILY / DEPENDENCY AND NEGLECT DRUG COURT

Colorado Adult Best Practice Standards

National Family Treatment Court Best Practice Standards

Family Drug Court programs focus on treatment for parents struggling with substance use. The programs serve families whose parental substance use is a contributing factor in children being removed from the home due to abuse or neglect. Although the parent is the participant, the focus on the best interest of the child(ren) is paramount. Family Drug Court promotes the safety and well-being of children by supporting the recovery of parents from alcohol use disorder and substance use disorder through enhanced access to comprehensive treatment services and increased accountability to the court.

As of December 2023, there are Family/Dependency and Neglect Drug Courts in the following locations:
