Things You Should Know About Veteran Treatment Courts

Veterans deserve more. United States servicemen and women earn their benefits and support through their service, yet far too many face ongoing challenges with healthcare access, mental health resources, disability claims backlogs, and housing support. Veterans treatment courts (VTC) aim to promote recovery and reduce recidivism in high-risk, high-need military veterans with repeat infractions related to substance use, mental health, and co-occurring disorders. Honorable Robert Russell founded the first VTC in Buffalo, New York, in January 2008. The structure of VTCs are similar to that of adult drug treatment courts in that they involve cooperation and collaboration with court officials, community partners, and law enforcement. The goal is to connect eligible veterans with benefits and treatment earned through military service. The program was initially funded initially by a grant from the Governor's Crime Commission from then-Governor Pat McCrory.

No. 14 seed Westover dominated No. 19 West Johnston 44-0 in the first round of the NCHSAA 6A East playoffs on Friday, Nov. 6, delivering a commanding performance in its postseason return at home. The Wolverines (7-4) finished the season undefeated at home with a 5-0 record, and earned what could be the largest playoff victory in program history. The blowout win also marked Westover's fifth shutout of the season. "It's exciting just for the moment because of the fact that these kids deserve it, man," Westover coach Justin Sherrod said postgame. "Not just these kids, Westover deserves it. Westover's community deserves it." To ignite the potent performance, Westover's defense set the tone early, consistently disrupting West Johnston's offense and creating opportunities to pull away, blocking two punts, and forcing a fumble over the course of the night. "It was good that the defense did what they did this season, and that made the offense have to step their game up," Sherrod said. "It's just complementing football."
