Call 3.09.22 - Kim Higgs wants to implement a Veterans Court in ND. There is buy-in to get this off the ground. There needs to be approval by ND Supreme Court to review documents – this is happening on April 19th – Kim and the rest of the team will have a meeting to discuss this next week. They would want to get jump-started sometime in July/August. ND looked at other states Drug-Court examples. Not COSSAP grantee – they are not looking for federal funding right now as their state has funding to get their program jump started. CHJ encourages her to apply for it. In North Dakota, their state is entered into units – Kim’s unit is in the courts with veteran’s outreach. Certain stipulations don’t allow for vets with aggregative/violent charges into the program. Kim needs help on the assessment side – running into a wall with people who have DD’s – assessment as in clinical – department of health is the triage. And to get the tribes in the area involved – Fox Valley for TA’s with tribal communities (could be a good reference point)
