Family Treatment Court
Drug Free Delta County works alongside District Judge Kellie Sterritt’s Family Treatment Court to reintegrate clients dealing with substance abuse into the community and reunite them with their families. Family Treatment Court deals with individuals who have lost custody of their children due in large part to their addiction. The primary goal is to re-establish sobriety and reunify the family. Positive results are achieved through therapeutic substance abuse treatment, bi-weekly court appearances, random drug testing, daily journaling in a planner and a comprehensive sober social activities calendar.
Community Treatment Panel
While Drug Free Delta County has worked consistently over the past 14 years with the Delta County Treatment Courts and law enforcement, six years ago we created a new program to treat the community at large. This program, REACH FOR RECOVERY, provides community individuals with access to this already proven successful program. Through the Community Treatment Panel, the individual does NOT have to be arrested to participate. While positive results are achieved through therapeutic substance abuse treatment, random drug testing, daily journaling and a comprehensive social activities calendar, our clients meet weekly with a Community Treatment Panel, comprised of therapeutic treatment providers and members of the community.

Alcohol/Drug-Free Sober Social Activities
The uniqueness of Drug Free Delta County's approach to victims of substance abuse is that we treat the individual in his/her own community. We attempt to re-acquaint them with "fun" in a sober social context, one that includes their immediate family. We also encourage them to participate and be active in a sober community. One of the tools we use to accomplish this is our Monthly Alcohol/Drug-Free Sober Social Activities Calendar which clients receive at the beginning of each month. Each day has a multitude of activities, from classes at Bill Heddles Rec Center to AA Meetings at Friends of Bill. We also provide passes to the Rec Center to encourage clients to be physically active and join in a variety of classes from Zumba to Kickboxing, Water Fitness to Yoga. We also hold a large monthly Sober Social Activity that all clients and their families attend. We have found that once a client engages with family and community in a meaningful way, their recovery has a much better chance of permanence.
Graduations
Graduation from Delta County's Family Treatment Court is cause for much celebration! After completing 18-plus months of highly structured living, the client begins a new life, free from addiction and the negative behaviors of their past. The courtroom is decorated and friends, family and staff applaud the accomplishments of the graduate. Graduation from REACH is equally festive, often being held at one of Drug Free Delta County's monthly sober events.
