Mesa Community Court

Mesa Community Court is a problem-solving, therapeutic court that seeks to stop the cycle of homelessness, addiction, and arrest, and to allow participants to achieve autonomy. Unlike conventional courts, our approach recognizes low-level offenses are often manifestations of broader social inequities. By acknowledging the interconnectedness of homelessness, substance use disorders, unmet physical and mental health needs, and unemployment, Community Court seeks to end justice system involvement by addressing an individual's underlying circumstances.

Mesa Community Court encourages participants to find employment and to also explore education opportunities to support their long-term career goals.

Mesa Community College: Our college will commit and deliver the following services and resources to all Mesa Community Court referrals.

  • MCC will provide a clear, committed department and staff including contact information accessible to all members of the Mesa Community Court team.
