Our findings suggest that drug treatment court participants' mental health, including PTSS, improved over time. However, the presence of elevated PTSS interfered with improvements in other facets of mental health. Additional work is needed to identify specific program components that may exert causal effects and to examine interventions for PTSS that can be readily integrated in drug treatment courts.
