24th Judicial District Specialty Treatment Courts

What 24th Judicial District Specialty Treatment Courts does

The 24th Judicial District Specialty Treatment Courts is a governmental judicial entity operating within the 24th Judicial District Court of Jefferson Parish, Louisiana. It runs five core specialty court programs — Drug Court, DWI Court, Reentry Court, Intensive Probation Services (IPS), and Swift & Certain Probation (SAC, based on the HOPE model) — that provide court-supervised, treatment-oriented alternatives to traditional case processing for non-violent offenders with substance abuse, DWI, and reentry needs. Programs are delivered through a multidisciplinary team of six specialty court judges, case managers, substance abuse counselors, assistant district attorneys, public defenders, state probation officers, lab technicians, and police department liaisons, supported by an in-house Drug Lab of Jefferson Parish and a catalog of six group classes (MRT, Anger Management, Domestic Abuse Intervention, Relapse Prevention, Cognitive Behavioral Skill Building, and Shoplifting Prevention).

The underlying operating model is a judge-led, graduated-sanctions framework with judicial review and supervision of participant progress across 12–18 month continuums of care; completion can yield expungement (Drug Court) or license reinstatement (DWI Court). The Reentry Court additionally operates an in-prison mentor and vocational training component at the Louisiana State Penitentiary (Angola) and Louisiana Correctional Institute for Women (LCIW), and coordinates a community Reentry Coalition spanning the Louisiana State Bar Association, Justice & Accountability Center of Louisiana, employers, financial professionals, mental health, housing, and crisis services via Via Link.

The entity is publicly funded through state and parish appropriations, with nominal cost-recovery from monthly participant fees, drug testing fees at point of collection, and Drug Lab services offered to outside agencies for a fee. Referrals flow exclusively through the Jefferson Parish court system, DA's office, public defenders, and state probation and parole; the entity has no commercial sales motion and no private capital structure. Geographic scope is Jefferson Parish, with the Virtual Court Policy codified in 2024 (Act 463) creating infrastructure for remote participation.
