The Drug Court Statewide and Regional Training allow NDCI to deliver its proven training curriculum to drug court professionals throughout the country in state and regional trainings.

Who Should Attend

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 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.

"Yes.  It (the conference) gave me much food for thought about making necessary changes in our program to survive and offer more comprehensive services to a larger population."

  

"Speaker was very knowledgeable on nationwide, acceptable, and common practices of drug courts.  Very learned on ideas and suggestions for the programs effectiveness.  We will employ some of the suggestions and hopefully increase success rate of clients getting through the program effectively and in a one year period of time"

 

"It went well and we learned a lot from the presenters.  After so many years in existance, it was great to have this as we have never done anything like this before."
