The Lancaster County DUI Court and Lancaster County Adult Drug Court hosted a joint graduation ceremony and celebration on December 5, 2024. The event commemorated the successful completion of a rigorous program involving comprehensive behavioral health treatment, intensive community supervision, and full accountability for nine graduates. Presiding over the ceremony was Judge John A. Colborn. This achievement is truly commendable, and we take great pride in honoring all the graduates.

Adult drug and DUI courts are an alternate route through the criminal justice system for nonviolent drug-related offenders. These courts utilize a specialized team process that functions within the existing state trial court structure. All problem-solving courts are designed to reduce recidivism and substance use among individuals with substance use disorders. The court’s goal is to protect public safety and increase the participant’s likelihood of successful rehabilitation by utilizing validated risk and need assessments, early and individualized behavioral health treatment, frequent and random chemical testing, incentives, sanctions, and other rehabilitative and ancillary services.
