SUMMARY:AllRise: Clinical vs. Forensic Drug Testing
DESCRIPTION:Session 3: Clinical vs. Forensic Drug Testing\nDate & Time\nJun 9\, 2026 09:00 AM in\nPacific Time (US and Canada)\nDescription\nDrug testing is one of the most frequently used and most frequently misunderstood tools in treatment court settings. When used appropriately\, drug testing can provide valuable clinical information to guide treatment decisions. When misused or misinterpreted\, it can lead to inappropriate sanctions\, erosion of the therapeutic alliance\, ethical conflicts for providers\, and poor outcomes for participants.\nThis session clarifies the critical distinctions between clinical and forensic drug testing\, including differences in purpose\, methodology\, interpretation\, and professional responsibility. Participants will review ASAM guidance on the appropriate use of drug testing and explore how courts’ expectations sometimes push treatment providers beyond their ethical scope of practice.\nUsing case examples\, including false positives\, misapplied results\, and harmful court responses\, participants will develop a clearer understanding of how to interpret drug testing results responsibly and communicate findings to court teams in a way that protects both clients and professional integrity. \nLearning Objectives\n1.	Differentiate between clinical and forensic drug testing in terms of purpose\, methodology\, interpretation\, and ethical responsibility.\n2.	Explain ASAM guidance regarding the appropriate clinical use of drug testing in addiction treatment.\n3.	Describe the ethical and professional risks of requiring treatment providers to function in forensic roles. \n“Therapeutic Court Association of Washington is sharing this event for informational purposes only and is not affiliated with\, endorsing\, or sponsoring the event.”

SUMMARY:AllRise: Mental Health\, Trauma\, and Justice Involvement
DESCRIPTION:Session 4: Mental Health\, Trauma\, and Justice Involvement\nDate & Time\nAug 11\, 2026 09:00 AM in\nPacific Time (US and Canada)\nDescription\nJustice-involved individuals often present with complex clinical profiles that extend far beyond substance use disorders. Serious mental illness\, trauma exposure\, cognitive impairment\, and chronic stress frequently shape behavior in ways that are misunderstood within traditional court frameworks. When these factors go unrecognized\, participants are often labeled as “noncompliant\,” sanctioned for symptoms\, and placed in treatment models that do not meet their clinical needs.\nThis session helps participants deepen their clinical conceptualization of justice-involved behavior. Attendees will examine how to differentiate substance use–driven behaviors from those rooted in mental health conditions\, trauma responses\, and neurobehavioral challenges. The session explores why standard treatment court structures frequently struggle to serve individuals with complex co-occurring disorders and highlights the risks of over-sanctioning clinically vulnerable participants.\nParticipants will gain practical strategies for adapting treatment approaches\, improving communication with court teams\, and advocating for responses that are grounded in clinical reality\, ethical practice\, and evidence-based care rather than misinterpretation of behavior. \nLearning Objectives\n1.	Differentiate between behaviors primarily driven by substance use and those driven by mental health conditions\, trauma\, or cognitive impairment.\n2.	Explain why individuals with complex co-occurring disorders often struggle in traditional treatment court models.\n3.	Describe how trauma\, chronic stress\, and emotional dysregulation impact behavior\, decision-making\, and perceived “compliance.” \n“Therapeutic Court Association of Washington is sharing this event for informational purposes only and is not affiliated with\, endorsing\, or sponsoring the event.”

SUMMARY:AllRise: The Sequential Intercept Model and Justice-Involved Individuals: Advancing Recovery-Oriented Responses Across the Criminal Justice Continuum
DESCRIPTION:Session 5: The Sequential Intercept Model and Justice-Involved Individuals: Advancing Recovery-Oriented Responses Across the Criminal Justice Continuum\nDate & Time\nSep 8\, 2026 09:00 AM in\nPacific Time (US and Canada)\nDescription\nThis session introduces the Sequential Intercept Model (SIM) as a powerful framework for guiding community and system-level responses to justice-involved individuals with substance use disorders. Participants will explore how SIM identifies key points\, or “intercepts”\, where effective interventions can divert individuals from deeper system involvement and connect them to treatment and recovery support. Emphasis will be placed on the role of treatment courts as a critical intercept and the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration across legal and clinical systems. Attendees will also learn how to enhance recovery outcomes by integrating peer support\, family involvement\, and community-based resources throughout the justice process. \nLearning Objectives:\nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to:\n1.	Describe the Sequential Intercept Model and explain how it applies to justice-involved individuals with substance use disorders at various stages of the criminal justice system.\n2.	Identify the role of treatment courts within the SIM framework and discuss how collaborative\, recovery-oriented approaches support diversion and rehabilitation.\n3.	Apply strategies to build interdisciplinary partnerships and incorporate recovery support services to enhance long-term outcomes for individuals involved in both the treatment and legal systems. \n“Therapeutic Court Association of Washington is sharing this event for informational purposes only and is not affiliated with\, endorsing\, or sponsoring the event.”

Explain key ethical principles and professional codes that guide addiction treatment in justice-involved settings\, including the application of confidentiality laws like 42 CFR Part 2 and HIPAA.\n2.	Identify and manage ethical challenges related to dual roles\, information sharing\, and potential conflicts of interest in treatment court environments.\n3.	Apply structured ethical decision-making models to complex scenarios involving coercion\, informed consent\, and legal-clinical tensions in treatment courts. \n“Therapeutic Court Association of Washington is sharing this event for informational purposes only and is not affiliated with\, endorsing\, or sponsoring the event.”
