The Prison Re-Entry Court in the Second Judicial District Court began as one of the nation's first two federally funded Prison Re-Entry Courts. The goal of the Court is to reduce the number of nonviolent defendants in prison by providing them with intensive supervision and treatment in an effort to break the cycle of crime associated with drug use.
The Court receives referrals from the Nevada Department of Corrections. While in prison, the inmate must work with their case manager on the application for referral to this Court program. To qualify, the defendant must demonstrate a willingness to: engage in employment; participate in vocational rehabilitation, or job skills training; meet any existing obligation for restitution to the victim of their crime and must be within 2 years of their release date from prison.
Prisoners are not eligible to participate, if they: committed a serious infraction in prison; failed to perform faithfully and in an orderly manner their prison assigned duties; have been convicted of a felony crime wherein they used force or violence against a victim; have been convicted of a sexual offense; or escaped or attempted to escape from a jail or detention facility.

The Prison Re-Entry Court values a holistic approach to help the participants pursue and stop the cycle of substance use, and criminal behavior.
