Summary: Drug abuse and addiction isn't just a personal problem, it's a medical problem, a family problem, a social problem, a financial problem and increasingly a legal problem. The legal system is stretched to the limit to a large extent by drug related cases and the legal system is being asked to solve not only legal problems but all the problems. Enter Drug Courts, a national movement that has had great success in dealing with many facets of the drug problem. More than a few recoveries have started with the firm insistence of enlightened judges and the court services acting on their behalf. Sometimes a dirty drop and a threat of jail just isn't enough. Join us in welcoming Judge Michael Feeterer who will give us an inside view of the how's and why's of Drug Courts.
