Tennessee
Serves Cocke, Grainger, Jefferson, and Sevier Counties
The Tennessee Recovery Oriented Compliance Strategy (TN-ROCS) is a court diversion program operating out of Cocke, Grainger, Jefferson, and Sevier Counties, Tennessee that serves justice-involved people who are at a lower risk for recidivism but have high behavioral health service needs from substance use disorder (SUD) and mental illness. The program provides treatment and recovery services for people who may be ineligible to participate in traditional drug recovery courts. Working with a prosecutor, defense attorney, and local treatment providers, TN-ROCS provides participants with substance use and mental health treatment and services. Local organizations and churches help support the program with services and enable TN-ROCS to increase the number of participants who receive assistance.
