Judiciary Training on Substance Use

All Rise’s Center for Advancing Justice, in collaboration with the National Judicial College, offers training opportunities on substance use tailored specifically for non-treatment court judges. These courses focus on the impact of substance use disorders and evidence-based responses proven to work with individuals involved in the justice system.

The curriculum translates best practices into practical strategies for judges who may encounter individuals with substance use disorders in judicial settings other than treatment courts. Our expert faculty and judicial trainers ensure that the content is engaging, relevant, and easy to apply in real-world settings.

Online training is available on demand through the All Rise E-Learning Center. You can enroll in and complete these courses at your convenience free of charge. Online training includes the following four modules:

• The Importance of Building Recovery Capital
• The Role of the Judge in Addressing Substance Use Disorder
• What Judges Need to Know About Criminogenic Risk, Need, and Responsivity
• What Judges Need to Know About Evidence-Based Probation Services

There is no cost to enroll in on-demand training through our E-Learning Center. In-person trainings are offered for a fee (see next section).

The Center for Advancing Justice offers in-person judiciary training for a fee. To learn more and obtain a custom proposal to suit your training needs, contact project director Wendy Schiller.
