Sentencing Options in Larimer County
Drug Court
Larimer County is unique in that there are two courts that focus on rehab. For people who are addicted to drugs and alcohol and who WANT to seek help, there may be alternative sentencing options. In Drug Court, the judge will get to know you, assess how you are doing in counseling and work with a team to facilitate a successful completion of the program. The purpose of Drug Court is to provide structure, encouragement and immediate consequences for defendants. By staying actively involved, the Drug Court program prevents people from slipping through the cracks of the system and holds them accountable to change.
DUI COURT
Larimer County recently started a DUI Court. The program is designed to help problem drinkers with multiple DUI convictions successfully address their addiction to alcohol. Through a program similar to the drug court described above, the judge and other personnel personally monitor defendants as they work through the system.
