Section 12-23-2 Legislative findings and intent. The Legislature finds that the high incidence
of crimes which directly involve alcohol and drugs in this state is intolerable; that the
problems of alcohol and drug abuse among the citizens of Alabama are extensive and exist at
an unacceptable level; that alcohol and/or drug abuse or dependency have been identified as
contributing factors in the commission of many crimes; that a concentrated and coordinated
state and local effort is needed to address the needs of Alabamians regarding such problems;
that a specialized system for screening, evaluating, educating, and rehabilitating defendants
convicted of alcohol and drug related offenses is required to address such problems; and that
adequate funding should be provided for this purpose. It is therefore the intent of the Legislature:
To establish a specialized court referral officer program to promote the evaluation, education
and rehabilitation of persons whose use or dependency on...

Section 12-23A-3 Legislative intent. (a) The Legislature recognizes that a critical need exists
in this state for the criminal justice system to more effectively address the number of defendants
who are involved with substance abuse or addiction. For the criminal justice system to maintain
credibility, court and community alternatives for the substance abuse and addiction involved

abuse on public safety, personal health, and health care costs, the spread of communicable
disease, educational performance and attainment, work force reliability and productivity,
family safety, and financial stability. Requiring accountability and effective treatment,

safety, the welfare of the individuals involved, reduce the burden upon the State Treasury
and benefit the common welfare of this state. The goals of this...
