Juvenile Drug Court-Reclaiming Futures Project

In FY 07, through a partnership with OJJDP, the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Greene County was funded to expand the capacity of service delivery to its pilot juvenile drug court program by integrating the Reclaiming Futures program model and planning efforts to include best practices in substance abuse treatment. This integrated system will improve and expand treatment services, implement a system of care to coordinate all social services, and increase community opportunities for youth and families. In partnership with CSAT, beginning in FY 08, a supplemental award will support the implementation of the treatment component. CSAT is currently providing training and technical assistance to support planning efforts for the treatment services. Greene County will use the evidence-based GAIN treatment model and will be required report performance in the following domains: client's substance use, family and living condition, employment status, social connectedness, access to treatment, retention in treatment, and criminal justice status.
