As a dynamic and evolving resource, the standards are updated on an ongoing basis. A revised version of the standards is now available.

The latest version:

• Includes the newly revised standard on drug and alcohol testing
• Includes the all new standard on community supervision
• Removes the numbering format; standards will be referred to by their titles rather than by numbers
• Temporarily omits the commentary and references, which are being revised for clarity and ease of use; revised commentary and references will be added as they become available
• Reorders the standards as follows to better support practical implementation:

• • Target Population
  • Roles and Responsibilities of the Judge
  • Multidisciplinary Team
  • Substance Use, Mental Health, and Trauma Treatment and Recovery Management
  • Complementary Services and Recovery Capital
  • Community Supervision
  • Incentives, Sanctions, and Service Adjustments
  • Drug and Alcohol Testing
  • Program Evaluation, Monitoring, and Improvement

Future Updates

Because they will be updated regularly, the standards will no longer be referred to by edition—instead, the cover page of the standards will indicate when they were last updated, allowing practitioners to be sure they are using the latest version. When making updates, All Rise maintains a rigorous peer review process involving treatment court practitioners, researchers, and other subject-matter experts.
