CHESHIRE COUNTY TREATMENT COURT MISSION STATEMENT
The Cheshire County Treatment Court is managed by a non-adversarial and multidisciplinary team including the superior court judge, the County Attorney, defense attorneys, house of corrections, probation/parole, treatment providers and the coordinator. Support from stakeholders representing law enforcement, the family and the community is encouraged through participation in hearings, programming and events like graduation.
The mission of the Cheshire County Treatment Court (CCTC) is to enhance public safety, reduce recidivism and rehabilitate felony level offenders who have a substance use disorder. This is accomplished by providing a judicially supervised, community based, comprehensive treatment program including evidence based practices that follow the 10 key components of drug court in order to empower the individual to develop a substance free and law-abiding lifestyle in a fiscally responsible manner.
