Mission

The mission of the Berks County Treatment Court Programs is to help people with drug or mental health problems by working together with the court system. The goal is to keep the community safe, help people take responsibility for their actions and stop repeat crimes. This program gives each person a plan that includes treatment, support, and close supervision. A judge oversees the plan, and many professionals work as a team to treat both mental health and drug problems while also keeping the public safe.

Vision

Through a collaborative and evidence-based approach, the Berks County Treatment Court programs envision a community where individuals impacted by substance use and mental health disorders are empowered to achieve lasting recovery through coordinated treatment, accountability, and support to help participants build stable, productive lives.
