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
