Overview of QMVTC
Queens Misdemeanor Veterans Treatment Court (QMVTC) offers substance abuse treatment as an alternative to incarceration for nonviolent felony drug offenders arrested in Brooklyn, New York. By offering court monitored treatment, QMVTC strives to break the damaging and costly cycle of addiction, crime and incarceration.
The QMVTC Part is unique due to its specialized screening process which affords a greater number of people the opportunity to receive drug treatment services through the criminal justice system. In addition, our enhanced screening process has sparked specialized programming for the adolescent population. Our case managers ensure that all participants, particularly our adolescents, receive the appropriate treatment services that are matched to both age and specific developmental treatment needs.
Our Mission
The QMVTC exists to honor Veterans' military service and support Veterans involved in the criminal justice system. Our goal is to ensure that Veterans receive appropriate, comprehensive services, and assist them in restoring themselves to healthy, productive and meaningful lives in the community.
