For the discussion this week, describe what you read about juvenile drug courts. You may wish to focus on the varying missions and processes, how drug use policy in the U.S. influenced the development of drug courts, treatment oriented interventions in the criminal justice system, or the provision of drug testing, case management, or related health and social services. You may want to also consider the experience of culturally diverse or unique populations. How do they fit into the drug court model? What provisions, if any, would be helpful for diverse populations?
