KENTUCKY....
Participants in Drug Court programs across Kentucky have been busy helping their communities in celebration of National Drug Court Month in May. While National Drug Court Month is observed annually in May, some programs recognize it with projects earlier in the year or have ongoing projects. The national theme for the month was All Rise: Putting Drug Court Within Reach of Every Person in Need. Kentucky Drug Court programs adopted an additional theme – Drug Courts: Keeping Kentucky Clean. Drug Court programs statewide are administered through the Administrative Office of the Courts, Department of Drug Court (Kentucky Drug Court), in Frankfort. In Pike County a panel of participants spoke with students at Johnson County Alternative School about Drug Court and substance abuse and recovery.
