  • Public Health
  • Criminal Justice
  • Mental Health Services

Background:

  • High prevalence of substance use, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among veterans.
  • Veteran involvement in the justice system exacerbates socioeconomic stressors and strains support systems.
  • Contact with the criminal justice system presents an opportunity for mental health intervention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of the challenges faced by veterans in the justice system.
  • To explore the ethical basis and history of Veterans Treatment Courts (VTCs).
  • To assess the potential success of VTCs in diverting veterans toward mental health treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the problem of veteran involvement in the criminal justice system.
  • Examination of the sequential intercept model for mental health diversion.
  • Case study of the Harris County Veterans Court as an example.

Main Results:

  • Veterans Treatment Courts (VTCs) are emerging as a specialized problem-solving court.
  • VTCs aim to divert veterans with mental illness from the traditional criminal justice system into treatment.
  • The Harris County Veterans Court serves as a model for this diversionary approach.

Conclusions:

  • Veterans Treatment Courts offer a promising pathway to address the complex needs of justice-involved veterans.
  • These courts align with the sequential intercept model by facilitating treatment access.
  • VTCs have the potential to improve public health outcomes and promote social justice for veterans.
