In 2009, in the municipality of Guadalupe, Nuevo Leon (a suburb of Monterrey), Mexico’s first drug court was established. This pilot program, modeled after drug courts in the United States, has witnessed several dozen participants graduate after completing an extensive program.
This project came together through the collaboration of various stakeholders in the Mexican Criminal Justice System and numerous US government and NGO’s including the Department of State-Bureau of Narcotics Affairs (BNA), The Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), the National Association of Drug Court Professionals (NADCP), American University, The Center for Court Innovation, and the Organization of American States (OAS/CICAD) Inter-American Drug Abuse Control Commission.
