In 2007 Superior Court II and Probation initiated the JCAP Program in coordination with the Dearborn County Sheriff, law enforcement center and the Prosecuting Attorney to address the growing devastation of alcohol and substance abuse affecting our community.
JCAP is an intensive treatment program staffed by Master’s prepared counselors at the law enforcement center and includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), life skills, substance abuse education and counseling. The program is accredited as a substance abuse treatment program by the Indiana Department of Mental Health.
The program started with a 16 bed pod for males in 2007 through use of Court Probation fees and community grants. In 2011 the Dearborn Community Foundation provided a generous grant to expand the program to include an 8 bed woman’s pod. No county tax dollars have been used to fund the programs.
JCAP participants are involved in providing community education on the issue of substance abuse in our local schools and community. JCAP and the Superior Court I ACC Court (which often works as a follow-up program to JCAP) are giving individuals and families the opportunity to meet their potential and be responsible community members.

In 2007, the Superior Court II with Probation initiated the A & D Program to address first time and low level offenders with education and/or counseling through probation services. The fees collected from the participation pays for the education component by a substance abuse counselor and assists with costs of the JCAP Program. The A & D Program is certified by the Indiana Judicial Center.
