All participants must complete substance abuse treatment, but there are also many other requirements to help get people back on the right track. The program has a success rate of 39% and takes an average 21 months to complete.<\/p>\n<p>Many participants (even\u00a0those who do not graduate) report a variety of positive results of treatment court, including regaining custody of their children, completing their GEDs, obtaining meaningful, long-term employment, and experiencing\u00a0holidays and special events sober for the first time in years. The vast majority of graduates never see another pair of handcuffs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Public Defender Services of Lane County represents all Adult Treatment Court participants unless there is a conflict of interest. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Attorneys <\/strong>who would like to refer their clients to Adult Treatment Court (AKA drug court) <u>must<\/u> submit a referral to PDS via e-mail so we can run a conflict check and schedule a date for Orientation (a general info session held at our office), which is mandatory for all participants. We typically conduct an Orientation every Monday at 1:15 pm. There are two parts to the Orientation: a 45 minute slide show, followed by a Q and A, and an individual meeting with the treatment court attorney to go over the required petition.
