House Bill 2485 passed by the 2004-05 Legislature addresses the public safety and public health issues caused by methamphetamine use in the State. It directs the Criminal Justice Commission (CJC) to design and implement a grant program to administer state funds for the purposes of creating new drug courts and of expanding the capacity of Oregon's more than 30 active drug court programs (ORS 137.656(3)(f)).
The 2007 Legislature expanded the Criminal Justice Commission Drug Court Grant Program from $2.5 million (for one year) to $6 million. (for two years). The Commission continued funding for drug courts originally funded in 2006. A new RFP has been announced for some additional funding.
