The Center for Court Innovation will lead a two-year national research project explicitly designed to bring together leading subject matter experts, drug court researchers, and drug court practitioners in order to strengthen the theoretical and measurement foundation of drug court research and seed a new generation of rigorous evaluation.

The purpose of this project is to modernize and expand the functionality of the National Decertification Index (NDI). This expansion will include the design and implementation of state-of-the-art technology meeting the needs of IADLEST, state POST and similar organizations, and NDI users and stakeholders.
