## Summary

**Would create a federal grant program to expand and standardize treatment courts.** The bill centers federal support on courts that pair substance use and co-occurring mental health treatment with justice supervision while protecting participants’ rights and eligibility. - Families and children: Family treatment courts would help parents or guardians in dependency cases with substance use disorders access evidence-based clinical assessment, medication for addiction treatment when appropriate, and wraparound services like parenting supports and housing. - People with substance use disorders and youth: Juvenile and adult drug treatment courts and impaired driving courts would offer alternatives to incarceration, require teams to screen for need and violent risk, and exclude people convicted of specified violent or sexual offenses. - Courts, tribal governments, and local agencies: States, courts, units of local government, and Indian tribal governments could receive grants that prioritize programs following National Association of Drug Court Professionals standards, must collect and report access and outcome data, and would be eligible for federal shares and technical assistance. *Would authorize annual federal funding of about $1.0 billion for 2024–2028 and allow grants to cover up to 75% of program costs.*
