In Lenawee County's Veterans Treatment Court, veterans can get help for addiction and mental health issues related to their military service. The Veterans Treatment Court diverts eligible veterans from the traditional court process to a specialized criminal court docket that provides a greater emphasis on addressing issues specific to veterans. The Veterans Treatment Court team consists of the judge, representatives from the prosecutor’s office, defense bar, probation, mentor coordinator, veteran outreach coordinator and law enforcement. All of our participants have the support of Lenawee County’s Mentor Program. A veteran mentor acts as a coach, guide, role model, advocate, and support system for each participant. Participants and mentors meet with the judge twice a month for scheduled review hearings to discuss successes and barriers and how Veterans Treatment Court can help them to be successful. The Veterans Treatment Court is presided over by Honorable Michael R. Olsaver.
