The Bureau of Justice Assistance, U.S. Department of Justice, and The National Drug Court Institute (NDCI) are pleased to announce the availability of Adult Drug Court State and Regional Training. Sponsored by the Bureau of Justice Assistance, NDCI now has the capacity to deliver its proven training curriculum to adult drug court professionals throughout the country in state and regional trainings. Trainings are available to adult drug court professionals at all levels of experience. Discipline-specific and specialized curriculum trainings, such as "Sanctions and Incentives," are also available. NDCI's curriculum menu includes, but is not limited to:

  • The Promise of Drug Court
  • Motivational Interviewing
  • Targeting and Eligibility
  • Drug Court for Defense Counsel
  • Psychopharmacology
  • A Paradigm Shift
  • Treatment: What Works
  • Prosecutor's Role and Responses

  • Judicial Styles

State agency representatives, such as representatives of Administrative Offices of the Courts or Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment Agencies, working with NDCI staff, can design a set of curricula specific to the needs of adult drug courts in a state or region. The curriculum can be delivered in one of three ways: NDCI can train state agency representatives to present the material; NDCI can partner with the state in presenting the material; or NDCI can provide faculty to present all material.
