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
defendant must be expanded. A growing body of research demonstrates the impact of substance
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,
in addition to or in place of, conventional and expensive incarceration, will promote public
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...
