Cowlitz County has been a leader in
the formation of and operation of drug courts in adult criminal cases,
dependency proceedings and in juvenile matters. The County's drug
courts have been responsible for returning countless members of our
community back to the community as productive, clean and sober
individuals. |

Defendants and allows them to enter into treatment as an alternative to
incarceration. More details of the program and its requirements can be

| The Hope Court was created to assist substance-affected parents in
dependency proceedings to receive treatment in a supportive program with
the end goal of returning their children to their custody. The Hope
Court is a partnership between the Juvenile Court, The Washington State
Attorney General's Office, the Department of Social and Health Services
and the Office of Public Defense. It presents a faster track for
children to return to their homes in a safe and sober environment. |

| The Safe Court program was instituted to provide an intensive, court-supervised, drug treatment option for juvenile offenders similar to the
adult drug court. It operates under the same principals modified to meet
the unique needs of juveniles with substance abuse issues. |
