Veterans with current or pending cases in Marin County Superior Court may qualify for a court-supervised program that connects them with treatment and support services.
The Marin County Veterans Treatment Court operates through a partnership among the court, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and local providers.
Participation is voluntary. The court and its treatment team determine who qualifies, and requirements and timelines vary by case.
Participants may be required to attend court regularly, receive treatment, work with case managers and coordinate care through VA health services.
Referrals typically come through defense attorneys, probation officers, court staff or partner agencies. The Marin County Veterans Service Office can help coordinate referrals but does not decide whether someone is accepted.
