Recognizing the unique personal challenges facing veterans upon their return to civilian life, including substance use, mental health issues and criminal behavior, the Veterans’ Treatment Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit was established in 2019 to connect justice-involved veterans to appropriate services in a court setting. It is a voluntary program monitored by an interdisciplinary team, including the judge, State’s Attorney, defense counsel, treatment/service providers, probation, volunteer peer mentors and Veterans Administration Services.
The program utilizes a therapeutic approach to afford veterans an opportunity to transition into civilian life and regain stability, as well as reduce, deter, and eliminate future criminal behavior.
Although there are Veterans’ Treatment Courts throughout Illinois, the Eleventh Judicial Circuit’s program is unique in that it encompasses all five counties of the circuit: Ford, Livingston, Logan, McLean, and Woodford.
McLean County’s Family Treatment Court (FTC) is a program for parents, children and families involved in the child welfare system due to parental substance use as a contributing factor to child abuse or neglect.
The purpose of the FTC is to protect child safety, ensure a permanent care-giving environment and promote children’s well-being through family recovery. Modeled after an adult Drug Court, the FTC will provide intensive judicial monitoring and offer a collaborative approach that will provide families with swift access to treatment, and comprehensive support and supervision which will empower parents to establish and maintain recovery while developing parenting skills. The program provides parents of children in need of services access to comprehensive, wrap-around service, including early intervention, substance use disorder (SUD) assessments and initiation of treatment, individualized case planning for parents, children, and families based upon comprehensive assessments of their unique needs, and wraparound services to parents.
The FTC has three primary goals: (1) ensure that children have safe and permanent homes within permanency planning timelines (or sooner); (2) ensure that families of color have outcomes from dependency cases similar to families not of color; and (3) ensure that parents are better able to care for themselves and their children, and to seek resources to be able to do so.
The McLean County Drug Court is the county’s first problem-solving court, established in 2006. It is a specialty court for non-violent, justice-involved adults with substance use issues. It is a voluntary program monitored by an interdisciplinary team, including the judge, State’s Attorney, defense counsel, treatment/service providers, probation, peer support specialist and law enforcement, providing substance use treatment and rehabilitation services.
The McLean County Recovery Court is a Mental Health Problem Solving Court designed for adult offenders who have been diagnosed with a serious mental illness.
The goal of Recovery Court is to decrease the number of recurrent arrests that result from mental health issues by sending offenders to treatment for their mental health issues rather than jail.
