Individuals arrested for drug misuse can be sentenced to traditional correctional facilities or, in some cases, can participate in Problem Solving Courts – specialized dockets that seek to treat the underlying problems contributing to criminal behavior. In 2019, the Research Team received a grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to evaluate and model interventions offered by adult Problem Solving Courts from January 01, 2018 – June 30, 2021 that may affect morbidity and mortality.
