The Ten Key Components
In 2008, the Buffalo Veterans Treatment Court adapted the U.S. Department of Justice's "Defining Drug Courts: The Key Components." These components provide the foundation for every successful VTC — including ours here in Hawai'i.
Veterans Treatment Courts promote sobriety, recovery and stability through a coordinated response to veterans' dependency on alcohol, drugs, and/or management of their mental illness. Realization of these goals requires a team approach. This approach includes the cooperation and collaboration of the traditional partners found in drug treatment courts and mental health treatment courts with the addition of the Veteran Administration Health Care Network, veterans and veterans family support organizations, and veteran volunteer mentors.
