Agenda 03/28/2017 Item #16D 403/28/2017
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve an after-the-fact Victims Advocacy Organization grant application
for a three-year Department of Justice (DOJ) Drug Court Discretionary Grant in the amount of
$572,527.
OBJECTIVE: To continue and strengthen Collier County’s Drug Court by incorporating national best
practices encouraging the best possible outcomes for as many participants as possible.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Collier County Adult Felony Drug Court is a collaborative effort between the
Florida 20th Judicial Circuit, State's Attorney's Office, Florida Department of Corrections, David
Lawrence Center, and Florida Department of Children and Families. Since its inception in 2000, the Drug
Court effectively integrates evidence-based substance use disorder treatment, mandatory drug testing,
sanctions and incentives, and transitional services in a judicially-supervised court setting with jurisdiction
over substance misusers.
The Collier County Adult Drug Court target population includes adults 18 years and over, who mirror the
arrestee population demographics and:
1. Have been charged with non-violent drug-related felony offense(s) and
2. Are substance dependent and
3. Are at risk of failing in less intensive rehabilitation programs.
The DOJ Drug Court Discretionary Grant focuses on quality improvements to the existing program,
including full incorporation of the ten National Association of Drug Court Professionals (NADCP) best
practice standards.
The application was due to the DOJ on February 28, 2017. Due to the unique nature of the grant and its
collaborative application process between the agencies, more time was needed to assemble the
application. Collier County CMA #5330 authorizes the County Manager to approve the submittal of grant
applications with subsequent Board action at the next regularly scheduled Board meeting to ratify the
approval as an after-the-fact application. The County Manager approved the grant application on February
21, 2017.
If the grant is awarded, the grant agreement and associated sub-recipient award(s) will be brought to the
Board at a later date for final approval and execution. Also, the agreement will be fully vetted through the
partner groups to confirm ability to execute. As fiscal agent for the grant, Collier County will be
responsible for ensuring compliance with the programmatic and financial reporting requirements of the
Drug Court Program. The sub-award contracts will include requirements for the subrecipients to provide
information as needed for these reports.
FISCAL IMPACT: If the grant is awarded, funds from the DOJ in the amount of $407,021 over three
years will be appropriated into the Human Services Grant Fund 707 via a Budget Amendment at the time
of Board acceptance. This grant requires at least a 25% local matc h, and the David Lawrence Center will
provide $165,506 (29%).
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Board will have the opportunity to accept or reject the funds if the
grant is approved. Accordingly, this Office has no issue with respect to the legality of this request, which
is appropriate for Board action. This is item requires a majority vote for Board approval. - JAB
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact due to this request.
03/28/2017
RECOMMENDATION: To approve the after-the-fact grant application for a three-year DOJ Drug
Court Discretionary Grant in the amount of $572,527.

SUBJECT: County Manager review and approva l of a 2017 Adult Drug Court Grant application
sponsored by the Bureau of Ju stice Assistance in the amount of $S72,527
Collier County Community and Human Services Department (CHS) is applying for Adult Drug Court
Grant funding that will assist Collier County, particularly to bring the Drug Court into full incorporation of
the NADCP 10 best practice standards. Without additional federal funding the program will remain
largely static, producing good outcomes for many participants but not the best possible outcomes for as
many participants as possible. There is a match requirement for this grant of 25%. This will be met by
the sub-recipient DLC at 29%.
Funding was announced December 20 , 2016 and the application is due February 23 , 2017 . Due to the
short turnaround, we are asking your approval for OMB to submit the application in www.grant.gov
followed by after the fact approval by the Board of County Commissioners at the March 28, 2017 BCC
meeting. Once you have reviewed the application, please sign the box above and call me for pickup at
23-252-2044 .
Thank you , and please let me know if you have questions regarding this request.

COLLIER COUNTY
ADULT FELONY DRUG COURT HANDBOOK
MISSION STATEMENT
“Changing and Saving Lives Through Honesty,
Personal Responsibility, and Recovery”
Page | 2 FEBRUARY 2017
INTRODUCTION TO DRUG COURT
You have been arrested for a drug-related crime and have been identified as a person who may have a drug
problem. You may be offered an opportunity to participate in Collier County’s Drug Court. This program is designed
to help you get off drugs and stay off drugs. Final disposition of your case will be determined by the terms of your
Drug Court Contract.
This handbook is designed to answer questions, address concerns and provide over-all information about the
Drug Court Program. As a participant you will be expected to follow the instructions given in Drug Court by the Judge
and comply with the treatment plan developed for you by your treatment team. This handbook will detail what is
expected of you as a Drug Court participant and review general program information. All participants are encouraged
to share this handbook with family and friends.
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Collier County Drug Court Program is designed as a court-supervised, comprehensive treatment program
for adults. This is a voluntary program which includes regular court appearances before a designated Drug Court Judge,
treatment which includes drug testing, individual/group counseling, family counseling, and regular attendance at
Recovery Support Groups. Participants are assisted with obtaining education and skill assessments and will be provided
referrals for vocational training, education and/or job placement services. The program length, determined by each
participant’s progress, will be a minimum of 12 months, followed by a period of probation.
Following arrest and/or formal charges being filed by the Office of the State Attorney, the participant will first
complete a screening to determine if the defendant is clinically appropriate for the Drug Court Program. The
defendant, along with his/her counsel, will receive an explanation of the Drug Court Program so they may decide
whether the sentence being offered, in exchange for the plea to the charges, is in the best interest of the defendant.
Every plea into the Drug Court Program will include the following general terms:
Complete a substance abuse evaluation and comply with all of the recommendations of the treatment
provider
Random drug testing during the period of probation
Curfew, except for work or purposes as approved by your Probation Officer
No possession or consumption of alcohol, drugs, or “mind altering” substances
No alcohol in your residence
No visiting bars, taverns, saloons, pubs, lounges, or package stores except for work purposes as
approved by your Probation Officer
Successfully complete the Drug Court Program
Restitution (If Applicable)
Entry into the Drug Court Program is voluntary. However, once the defendant has pled into Drug Court and has
been sentenced, he/she may not voluntarily withdraw from the program without facing a Violation of Probation. While
in Drug Court, the defendant will be placed on two years' drug offender probation followed by a period of regular
probation, requiring compliance with specific terms and/or conditions. The defendant will be assigned a probation
officer upon sentencing to provide supervision and enforcement of those terms and conditions. Probation supervision
will include unannounced home visits during which the defendants’ person and residence will be subject to search, and
random drug screenings. Successful completion o f the program will result in the disposition of your case according to
the terms of your drug court contract. Failure or discharge from the program will result in a Violation of Probation.
The Drug Court Team will make the final determination of any potential participant entry into the Drug Court
Program. The Drug Court Team consists of the Judge, the State Attorney’s Office, the Public Defender’s Office, the
Department of Corrections, Law Enforcement and a treatment provider.
Page | 3 FEBRUARY 2017
DRUG COURT SUPERVISION
As a Drug Court participant, you will be required to appear in Drug Court on regular ly scheduled dates.
Missing a court date will result in a warrant being issued for your arrest and remand you to custody. At each
appearance the Judge will be given a p rogress report prepared by the treatment provider and/or the probation officer
regarding your test results, attendance and participation. The Judge will ask you questions about your progress, and
discuss any specific problems you have been experiencing. You will receive encouragement to continue with your
progress in the program and work with your treatment team toward success. If you are not doing well, the Judge will
discuss this with you and the treatment team to determine further action. If you commit program violations, e.g.
positive or missed tests, failure to attend individual or group counseling or Recovery Support Group meetings, failure
to report to your probation officer, etc., the Court will impose sanctions (See SANCTIONS below). With repea ted
violation of the program requirements and/or a failure to progress satisfactorily, the Court may impose the ultimate
sanction of discharge from the program which will lead to a Violation of Probation.
If you cannot appear in Court as scheduled, you must notify your probation officer as soon as possible to
explain why you cannot appear. If you have any questions regarding your court appearances, you are required to
contact your probation officer at (239) 417-6300.
Warrants and/or new arrests could result in your termination from the Drug Court Program and a Violation of
Probation. Other violations, which could result in termination, include missing drug tests, demonstrating lack of
program participation by failing to cooperate with treatment, and failure to follow instructions of the probation officer.
Violence or threats of violence directed at the treatment team or other clients will result in program termination. All
final decisions regarding termination from the program will be made by the Drug Court Judge.
FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS
As a participant of the Drug Court Program you will be required to pay the following fees.
Court Costs-- Actual costs will be determined by the Judge at the time of sentencing.
Treatment Costs-- You will be required to pay for your treatment. The cost will be determined by the
treatment provider and paid directly to them. Costs may be reduced based on financial evaluation.
Drug Testing Costs—Drug Testing fees are the responsibility of the participant. From time to time,
funding may be available to allow the treatment provider to cover such costs for participants. However,
all costs associated with any positive drug tests and dilute tests will be billed to the participant.
TREATMENT PHASES
The Drug Court Treatment Program is a Four Phase, highly structured, treatment program lasting for a
minimum of twelve months, depending upon your individual progress, which is then followed by a period of regular
probation. After a plea, the participant will be assigned to a probation officer and a drug treatment counselor and who
will provide the participant with an orientation/overview of the Drug Court Program. The problems and needs of the
participant will be assessed and an individual treatment plan will be developed.
Each phase consists of specified treatment objectives, therapeutic and rehabilitative activities, all required for
advancement into the next phase, which also requires approval by the Drug Court Team. The components and
requirements for advancement from each phase are described below.
If you relapse or have an unexcused missed drug test during any phase, you may be required to return to an
earlier phase as determined by the Drug Court Team. No matter what phase of treatment a participant is in at time of
relapse or an unexcused missed drug test, the participant must demonstrate 12 months of continuous sobriety prior to
being considered for “Moving-On”.
Page | 4 FEBRUARY 2017
TREATMENT PLANS & COUNSELING
An individualized initial treatment plan will be developed by you and your treatment team following an overall
assessment of your problems and needs. The plan will act as a guide for your initial treatment phase and within it, you
will set goals, select methods for meeting those goals, and develop target dates for achieving those goals. The plan will
be maintained by your treatment team and will be updated monthly as you progress through the program.
Treatment may consist of group therapy, individual therapy, medication,* intensive outpatient treatment,
residential treatment, and/or referrals to community treatment partners. Your attendance at counseling sessions will be
reported to the Drug Court Team as part of your progress report. You must have prior permission from your counselor
to be excused from a counseling session.
* Medication assisted treatment (“MAT”) is supported by Drug Court, when properly prescribed and supervised
by a qualified physician. Participants wishing to use MAT as part of their Drug Court Treatment Plan will be required
to permit release of all relevant information to the Drug Court Team, and will be required to adhere strictly to the
parameters approved by the Drug Court Team in coordination with the prescribing physician.
DRUG TESTING
You will be tested through the entire treatment process. You will be tested randomly at a minimum of one time
per week. The Drug Court Team will have access to all drug test results. Missing and /or tampering with a drug/urine
test may be deemed a positive test and may result in your termination from the program (this includes flushing,
diluting, consuming substances to mask flushing, using someone else’s urine, etc.).
RECOVERY SUPPORT GROUP REQUIREMENTS
Attendance will be required at Recovery Support Group Meetings such as Narcotics, Cocaine and/or Alcoholics
Anonymous or another Recovery Support Group approved by the treatment provider. The frequency of attendance
requirement is determined by your progress in the program and your phase level. Attendance is an important part of
your recovery process to help familiarize you with the “Recovery” philosophy, and help you develop levels of trust, as
well as to earn and create social bonds with other recovering addicts. Your treatment team will provide you with
information regarding the time and location of local Recovery Support Group meetings and will also direct you to
special interest and recovery events in the community. Your treatment provider may also require you to provide proof
of attendance on a weekly basis.
ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENTS
Attendance at all court appearances, group treatment sessions, drug screens, probation meetings and Recovery
Support Group meetings (minimum # per week) is MANDATORY. Failure to attend any such event is presumed to be
UNEXCUSED, and can lead to an immediate sanction or Violation of Probation. In order to be excused from a
mandatory event, participants must contact treatment or probation, as appropriate, immediately upon becoming aware
of the inability to attend the event. The participant must provide appropriate proof/documentation of the emergency to
treatment or probation, as appropriate, within 48 hours after the emergency has passed.
Page | 5 FEBRUARY 2017
EDUCATION, VOCATION AND EMPLOYMENT PROGRAMS
Recovery from substance addiction means developing self-sufficiency and becoming a productive and
responsible member of the community. During the treatment program, you will be expected to be employed or
involved in an educational or vocational training program full-time. Your case manager and your probation officer
will work to assist you in obtaining an assessment of your needs and skills and will refer you to the proper agency for
education, training, and job placement.
CASE MANAGEMENT
Upon your entry into the Drug Court Program, your treatment team will assess your housing, transportation,
family, and general living needs and when appropriate, refer you to a local, state and/or county agency for assistance.
MOVING-ON
Once you have successfully completed the criteria for each phase (as described in the treatment phases
sections) you will eventually become a candidate to “Move On” from the Drug Court Program. We speak of “Moving-
On” rather than “Graduation” because the Drug Court team understands that no addict or alcoholic “graduates” from
their addiction, as recovery is a lifelong process. You will be required to discuss your progress toward the goals you
initially set, and explain why you believe you have met the criteria for “Moving-On”. Advancement for each phase and
successful completion of the program shall be determined by the Drug Court Team. Your family will be invited to join
you in Court as the Judge congratulates you on successfully completing the Drug Court Program.
DRUG COURT PROGRAM RULES
Failing to comply with any of these rules may result in imposition of a sanction and/or termination from the
Drug Court Program and a Violation of Probation.
1. Do not use or possess any drugs, alcohol, or “mind altering” substances, unless specifically permitted by
your Treatment Plan and/or authorized by the Drug Court Team:
Sobriety is the primary focus of this program. Maintaining a completely drug-free lifestyle is essential in
your recovery process. This includes mood-altering prescription drugs, e.g., Benzodiazepines (Valium,
Xanax, etc.), opiates (Tylenol 3, Percocet, Darvocets, etc.), and over-the-counter medication/supplements
(EVEN IF PRESCRIBED) unless approved in advance by treatment. This also includes all currently known
and/or future synthetic and designer drugs, e.g. Bath Salts, Spice, Kratom, Flakka etc.
This is a “ZERO TOLERANCE PROGRAM.” Participants must refrain from the use of products that
contain even trace amounts of “mind altering” substances. Examples include, but are not limited to: Poppy
Seeds, Non-Alcoholic Beer, Vanilla Extract, as well as certain Mouthwash, Toothpaste, Cold Remedies, Hair
Products, Inhalants, and Cough Syrup.
"WHEN IN DOUBT, LEAVE IT OUT!" If you have any doubt as to whether a product may cause a
positive drug test, refrain from use or consult your treatment provider before using.

DRUG COURT PROGRAM RULES (cont’d)
2. Report to Probation Officer as directed:
You will meet with your Probation as required to discuss your progress in the program and to ensure you are
in compliance with your conditions of probation. Your Probation Officer will discuss with you these
reporting procedures during your initial visit with your officer.
3. Attend all ordered treatment sessions:
These may include individual and/or group counseling, family counseling, educational sessions and
Recovery Support Group Meetings. If you are unable to attend any scheduled session, you must contact
your treatment team to discuss immediately.
4. Be on time:
If you are late, you may not be allowed to attend your counseling session and will be co nsidered non-
compliant. Contact your assigned counselor if there is a possibility that you may be late.

Court Team members. There are to be no side conversations, and absolutely no cell phones will be
permitted to be in the Courtroom or in Group.
8. Proper attire:
As a participant, you will be expected to wear appropriate attire to Drug Court and to group treatment
sessions. Proper attire for court appearances shall be as follows:

CONCLUSION
The Drug Court Program has been developed to help you achieve total abstinence from illicit and illegal drugs
and all criminal activity. The program is designed to promote self-sufficiency and to return you to the community as a
productive and responsible member. The program is voluntary and is your personal choice. The Judge, the court staff
and the treatment team are present to guide and assist you, but the final responsibility is yours. You must be motivated
to make this change and commit to a drug-free life.
We hope this Handbook has been helpful to you and answered most of your questions. If you have additional
questions or concerns about the Drug Court Program, please feel free to ask your treatment team. Important Drug
Court telephone numbers have been listed below for an easy access.
