The UK is expanding rehab-focused courts to reduce reoffending by addressing issues like addiction and mental health.
The UK Labour government is expanding its intensive supervision courts, starting with a new women’s court in Liverpool, to reduce reoffending by addressing root causes like substance abuse and mental health.
These courts, already piloted in England, keep persistent non-dangerous offenders before the same judge while connecting them with local support services, aiming to replace short prison sentences with rehabilitation-focused accountability.
Justice Secretary David Lammy calls the approach “smarter justice,” inspired by successful US problem-solving courts that reduced reoffending by a third.
The expansion follows a May review recommending fewer sentences under 12 months.
Early results show high compliance and improved health outcomes, with other regions expressing interest in adopting the model.
