Summary

"The Drug Treatment Court Funding Program (DTCFP) is a contributions funding program that provides financial support and administers funding agreements to six drug treatment court (DTC) sites that were selected through a call for proposals. The six sites include two original DTCs in Toronto and Vancouver and an additional four DTCs located in Edmonton, Winnipeg, Ottawa, and Regina. As part of its performance measurement strategy, the Department of Justice scheduled the evaluation of the DTCFP to be conducted in fiscal year 2008–2009. The evaluation examined issues of relevance, design and delivery, success, and cost effectiveness/alternatives. The evaluation covers the period since the DTCFP began (December 2004 to March 2009)."--Page i.
