SUMMARY:Proceeding with Care: Reconsidering Drug Testing Protocols for Treatment Courts
DESCRIPTION:SAMHSA GAINS Center Presents: \nProceeding with Care: Reconsidering Drug Testing Protocols for Treatment Courts \nMarch 31\, 2026\, 1:30–3:00 p.m. ET  \nIndividuals participating in treatment courts often have extensive histories of trauma\, and those with substance use and/or mental health disorders are often disproportionately impacted. Without a trauma-informed approach\, evidence-based treatment court procedures—such as drug testing—may inadvertently re-traumatize participants\, reducing the effectiveness of court interventions. \nThis webinar will examine how trauma-informed approaches to drug testing practices in treatment courts may improve participant experiences and outcomes. The presentation will explain potentially problematic practices and explore strategies for integrating trauma awareness into existing procedures\, within the framework of the Adult Treatment Court Best Practice Standards. \nLearning Objectives \n\nUnderstand the connection between traumatic experiences and potential issues that can arise with drug testing.\nRecognize what considerations may be needed to conduct safe and supportive drug testing protocols involving people with extensive histories of trauma.\nConsider trauma-informed strategies to modify or enhance existing drug testing policies and protocols for improved participant engagement and outcomes.\n\nPresenter \nWest Huddleston\, Chief Growth Officer\, Holon Health \nRegister here: Webinar Registration – Zoom

SUMMARY:Strengthening Veteran Identification Efforts
DESCRIPTION:Brought to you by National Institute of Corrections: \nStrengthening Veteran Identification Efforts\nDate and Time: March 19\, 2026\nat 9 am PT / 10 am MT /11 am CT / 12 pm ET for 90 minutes. \nThe National Institute of Corrections (NIC) Veterans Network launched a series of three webinars this year that highlighted services for veterans who have become negatively involved in the criminal justice system. The next webinar will be An Introduction to Strengthening Veteran Identification Efforts. Identification is a critical first step to connecting at-risk veterans with the services and treatment they have earned. \nWhy Is This Topic Important?\nStudies show that deployment-related trauma exposure\, combined with increased incidence of mental health and substance use disorders\, elevate veterans’ risk of contact with the justice system. For example\, one study showed that veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder had a 61% higher chance of criminal justice system involvement than veterans without PTSD. Another study found that justice-involved veterans were almost three times as likely as other veterans to have attempted suicide in their lifetime. \nThese early stages of the criminal justice process are critical\, as they provide a key opportunity to identify the challenges facing veterans and to connect them to services and benefits tailored to help them address those challenges. \nSeries Take-Aways\nThis interactive webinar will cover several topics to get you started with beginning (or improving existing) identification efforts in your organization\, office\, or community. Participants will: \n\nDiscover how identification efforts can give your organization more visibility with at-risk and vulnerable veterans in your community.\nRecognize how identification processes can ensure veterans can assess the treatment and programs they need.\n\nLearn about the Department of Veterans Affairs tools\, Veterans Reentry Search Service and Status Query and Response Exchange System (SQUARES) that allow law enforcement\, jails\, prisons\, and courts to independently verify the veteran status of individuals. \nSpeakers: \nMatt Doss\nProgram Manager\, Project Lead Illinois Veteran Deflection\, TASC’s Center for Health and Justice \nKatie Wilson\nIndiana Court of Technology\, Office of Judicial Administration\, Indiana Supreme Court \nKari Jackson\nLocal Inmate Data System (LIDS) Manager\, Virginia State Compensation Board \nStephani Carlton\nStatewide Veterans Service Manager\, Virginia Department of Corrections \nAlso including NIC Staff:\nJim Wiseman\, National Programs Advisor\, National Institute of Corrections\, U.S. Department of Justice \nJeff Hanson\, National Programs Advisor\, National Institute of Corrections\, U.S. Department of Justice \nWho Should Attend?\nLaw enforcement\, corrections staff\, court and legal representatives (defenders and prosecutors)\, social workers\, justice program managers\, staff from state veterans affairs departments\, and advocates working directly with veterans involved in the criminal justice system. \nHow Do I Register?\nFollow this link to register in NIC’s WebEx Event Center \nRegister for the Webinar

Training will emphasize the importance of cultural awareness\, including tribal sovereignty\, traditions\, and contemporary realities; a thorough understanding of the historical context that continues to shape tribal–federal–state relationships; and the unique legal and jurisdictional complexities that define law enforcement in Indian Country. \nBy fostering a deeper appreciation for Native histories\, values\, and governance structures\, officers will be better prepared to navigate sensitive situations with cultural competence and humility. The curriculum will also highlight best practices in cross-jurisdictional collaboration between tribal\, local\, state\, and federal agencies—ensuring coordination that respects tribal authority and enhances both officer and community safety. Ultimately\, this training seeks to build trust\, improve operational effectiveness\, and promote long-term partnerships that honor the sovereignty and dignity of Native nations. \nThis training is available to all federal\, state\, and Tribal criminal justice and social service professionals who work in Indian country or with Native Americans. There is no charge to attend this training\, and CLE will not be available. \nThis training is a joint effort hosted by federal law enforcement agencies responding to violent crime in Indian Country. Sponsoring agencies include the U.S. Department of Justice’s National Indian Country Training Initiative\, the United States Indian Police Academy\, the Federal Bureau of Investigation\, the Drug Enforcement Administration\, the Bureau of Alcohol\, Tobacco\, Firearms and Explosives\, and the Department of the Interior’s Office of Law Enforcement and Security’s Victim Assistance Program. \nIf you have any questions\, please contact Lamesha Bowman at Lamesha.Bowman@usdoj.gov\, Deborah Thomas at Deborah.Thomas@usdoj.gov or Leslie A.

SUMMARY:Advancing Treatment Provider Training
DESCRIPTION:Brought to you by All Rise: \nFirst session: Tuesday\, March 10\nAll Rise’s Treatment Court Institute will again host its popular virtual training series: advanced adult treatment provider training. This series is designed for treatment professionals working with justice-involved individuals impacted by substance use and co-occurring disorders who are ready to take their knowledge and skills to the next level. \nThe first session will be held on Tuesday\, March 10 at 12:00 p.m. ET; don’t wait\, register today! \nSession 1: Gambling\, Behavioral Addictions\, and Hidden Risk in Justice Populations\nProblem gambling and other behavioral addictions are significantly overrepresented among justice-involved populations\, yet they remain largely unrecognized in most treatment court and supervision settings. When left unidentified\, gambling disorder can quietly undermine treatment engagement\, destabilize recovery\, fuel criminal behavior\, and be misinterpreted by courts as irresponsibility or defiance rather than a treatable condition. \nThis session brings clinical clarity to a frequently overlooked issue. Participants will explore gambling disorder as a diagnosable behavioral addiction\, examine the complex intersections between gambling\, other mental health disorders\, substance use\, impulsivity\, and criminal justice involvement\, and identify why traditional substance use disorder treatment models often fail to detect or address gambling problems. \n\n\n\nLEARN MORE + REGISTER\n\n\n\nAbout the Series\nThis in-depth training series builds advanced skills in treatment planning\, courtroom collaboration\, ethical decision making\, and evidence-based care delivery. There are six virtual training sessions in the series planned for 2026\, each of which will be led by All Rise staff or faculty experts and will offer actionable insights for immediate use in the field. All sessions will be held from 12:00 to 1:15 p.m. ET. \nPresenters:\nSarah Nelson\, Ph.D.\nSarah Nelson is the director of research at the Division on Addiction\, Cambridge Health Alliance\, and an associate professor in the department of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Nelson’s work covers many facets of addiction\, including the relationship between psychiatric comorbidity and impaired driving\, how best to develop community recovery environments for youth with substance use problems\, and the distribution and determinants of gambling problems. She has led the development\, implementation\, and evaluation of the Computerized Assessment and Referral System (CARS) at impaired driving programs and courts across the country. Dr. Nelson’s gambling work has focused on predicting the development of gambling problems\, improving screening and assessment of gambling problems\, and evaluating gambling interventions such as voluntary self exclusion. \nJulie Seitz\, L.A.D.C.\, L.G.S.W.\, M.S.W.\nJulie Seitz is a project director with Impaired Driving Solutions\, a division of All Rise\, providing national training and technical assistance to treatment courts and justice-system partners.
