Our Mission & Values
For more than 20 years, the NRCSF has helped build the bridge between recovery and the criminal justice system.
The NRCSF promotes the Therapeutic Community model through long-term residential Recovery Court programs. These programs serve as an alternative to incarceration for persons with substance use and co-occurring disorders while maintaining judicial supervision. The NRCSF is an integrated part of these programs and supports the residential Recovery Courts through community activities that include advocacy, outreach, education, and program reviews.

Recovery
The NCRSF feels that recovery is an ongoing, gradual, long-term process of change. It doesn’t happen overnight and those seeking it need to be supported throughout their journey.
The NRCSF looks for opportunities to facilitate new partnerships, identify resources for the therapeutic communities, and bridge the gap between the criminal justice system and the community.
Outreach
The NRCSF works with agencies and stakeholders at the federal, state, and local levels to help increase the public awareness of the link between crime, substance abuse and related issues.
Advocacy
Education
The NRCSF hosts educational events on substance abuse, the therapeutic community model, and on the recovery supports available within the local community.
