The Athens-Clarke County DUI/Drug Court last week received national recognition as one of just four DWI Academy Courts in the nation.
The honor was bestowed by the National Center for DWI Courts in partnership with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
As an NCDC Academy Court, local court team members will help develop, identify and test national best practices for DWI Courts, including answering questions, providing advice, and – in some instances – hosting visitors such as court teams participating in training.
