Over 1,600 clients have successfully completed drug treatment, had their charges dismissed, and returned to society; the recidivism rate among this group is less than 3 percent. The program costs $500 per person, which is mostly offset by fees collected from clients, totaling over $19,000 per month. Although the program started exclusively with Dade-County resources, over 200 private residential treatment beds have been committed to the program. There have been no trials in the Drug Court; its objective is to match defendants with appropriate treatment programs.
