Veteransâ?? treatment court moves forward in Wisconsin (Wisconsin Law Journal)

Noted: After much brainstorming and research, they developed the Wisconsin Veterans Intervention Program (WI-VIP). WI-VIP has three components.

The first utilizes law students. The Frank J. Remington Center at the University of Wisconsin Law School will develop and facilitate an outreach program to assist in a whole range of problems facing returning vets, from housing, divorce and drug dependency. The goal, says Ginger, is to address veteransâ?? needs with a multidisciplinary approach, emphasizing the resolution of any civil legal needs, to head off any potential negative brushes with the criminal justice system.
