This interview originally aired on "In the Moment" on SDPB Radio.

We explore finding solutions through South Dakota's treatment courts. These courts seek to help those with substance use or mental health disorders get started on the road to recovery and stability.

The program is designed to help people get back on the right track after becoming involved in the judicial system.

Noreen Plumage is the state director of the South Dakota Problem-Solving Courts. She explains who benefits from the programs and what research says about recovery.
