Ready to learn from the best and visit a mentor court?
Three Ways to Learn from the Best
In-Person Visit
All travel and related expenses are covered by NDCI.
Virtual Visit
Can't fly to visit a treatment court in person? Observe a mentor court from a distance through video conference.
Professional Shadowing
Work one-on-one with a treatment court professional in a specific discipline to better understand that role on the team.
How It Works
Complete the application telling us about you and/or your court program. NDCI staff will schedule a time with you to discuss further and plan your visit.
All mentor court visitors are required to complete a brief online evaluation upon completion of the visit or shadowing. Based on feedback from the evaluation, NDCI staff will determine what, if any, further training or technical assistance is required.
This program is made possible by the Bureau of Justice Assistance within the Office of Justice Programs at the U.S. Department of Justice.
