“The
mission of drug courts is to stop the abuse of alcohol and other
drugs and related criminal activity. Drug courts are a highly
specialized team process within the existing Superior Court structure
that addresses nonviolent drug-related cases. They are unique in the
criminal justice environment because they build a close collaborative
relationship between criminal justice and drug treatment
professionals. “

"Intoxicated Driver Program (IDP)
Any
person convicted of an alcohol related traffic offense must
participate in a program at an Intoxicated Driving Resource Center (IDRC):
- New Jersey has an IDRC in each county for first and third-time offenders and three regional centers for second-time offenders
- During the program, offenders attend mandatory Alcohol and Highway Safety Education courses
- IDRC also evaluates each offender for an alcohol or drug problem and determines the need for treatment
- If treatment is needed, the offende must complete a 16-week minimum treatment
- IDRC monitors compliance and reports noncompliance to the courts and IDP. IDP makes recommendation to the MVC for suspension or restoration based on the offender’s successful completion of conviction requirements.
Satisfactory
participation in IDRC is a step toward restoring your license.
Failure to comply will result in further license suspension and
possible jail time.”
Division

Through
a partnership between the Division of Addiction Services (DAS),
Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC), and the Motor Vehicle
Commission (MVC), the Intoxicated Driving Program (IDP) coordinates
all services for driving under the influence (DUI) clients
statewide. The IDP office also manages the county and
regional Intoxicated Driver Resource Centers (IDRC). IDP coordinates the client’s
participation in county level education, screening and referrals
completed at the county Intoxicated Drivers Resource Centers.
Treatment is made available through the use of the Driving Under the Influence Initiative (DUII) fund for financially
indigent New Jersey residents meeting certain requirements. The
overall mission of the New Jersey Intoxicated Driving Program (IDP)
is to make our highways and waterways safe for the Garden State by
preventing DUI recidivism.”
