Specialty Court Liaison

Sanctuary Recovery Centers • Phoenix, AZ

3d

About The Position

This position is designed to strengthen partnerships with courts, improve compliance outcomes, and expand structured peer-led recovery programming for justice-involved individuals.

Identified Gap
Justice-involved individuals often fall between systems:
• Courts require compliance and accountability
• Treatment providers focus on clinical services
• Community resources require navigation and follow-through
What is frequently missing is a structured, accountable, peer-led bridge between these systems.
Without that bridge:
• Court compliance drops
• Treatment engagement weakens
• Housing and employment stability suffer
• Revocations and sanctions increase
This role directly fills that gap.

The Specialty Court Liaison will:
• Serve as the direct liaison between specialty courts, probation, treatment teams, and community providers
• Deliver structured peer mentoring focused on compliance and long-term stability
• Implement Solution-Focused Brief Interventions and Motivational Interviewing to increase engagement
• Develop reentry tracks that prioritize housing, employment, and sustained sobriety
• Create measurable systems for tracking outcomes and program impact
This is not passive mentoring.
This is structured recovery operations within the justice ecosystem.

Justice-involved individuals are not failing because they lack rules.
They fail because systems do not talk to each other.
Courts demand compliance.
Treatment demands engagement.
Housing demands stability.
Employment demands reliability.
Most participants are expected to navigate all of this alone while managing addiction, trauma, and legal pressure.
The result is predictable:
• Missed appointments
• Poor documentation
• Lost housing
• Relapse
• Revocation
The Specialty Court Liaison changes that equation.
This position:
• Translates court expectations into actionable recovery plans
• Translates treatment goals into daily structure
• Translates chaos into accountability
• Translates lived experience into credibility
The outcome is not just support.
The outcome is measurable stability.
This role positions the organization as a serious justice-system partner, not simply a service provider.
It improves:
• Court confidence
• Participant outcomes
• Community reputation
• Long-term sustainability
In short:
This role reduces revolving doors and builds recovery pathways.
Not just inspiration.
