Each year, the treatment court community comes together to celebrate National Treatment Court Month. Today, more than 4,000 treatment court programs serve as the nation’s most successful response to individuals with substance use, mental health, and trauma disorders in the justice system. Our free National Treatment Court Month Toolkit is now available to help you share this story with the public, the media, and elected officials all throughout the month of May.

What’s Inside

In the toolkit and on our website, you’ll find a wealth of guidance and downloadable samples, including:

• Media advisory, op-ed, event invitation, proclamation, and social media templates
• Step-by-step instructions for inviting elected officials to your graduation or other event
• Creative ideas for events to raise awareness and support in your community
• Key talking points about the treatment court movement

…and more!

Share Your Success

We can’t wait to hear how your program is celebrating National Treatment Court Month. Be sure to submit your photos, videos, and media coverage using the submission form on our webpage so we can highlight your milestones, graduations, community service events, rallies, 5Ks, tournaments, and more. See your photos in this year’s toolkit!  We also highlight them in publications, presentations, and on social media to showcase your achievements all year long.
