Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

The North Carolina Judicial Branch lists Forsyth (District 31) among the counties with an operating veterans treatment court. These courts work with veterans "with a substance use, mental health, or co-occurring disorder" and repeated offences, connecting them with the benefits and treatment their service earned under court supervision, using the adult treatment court standards and the ten key components of veterans treatment courts. Neither the Judicial Branch nor Forsyth County publishes a page for this court, its eligibility rules or a contact, so no discharge or rating test is stated. Entry comes through the criminal case: a veteran charged in Forsyth County should ask the defence lawyer, or the assistant district attorney handling the case, about referral.
