The purpose of this article is to describe results of a process evaluation for a drug court program. In all, 69 different individuals representing 10 different agency perspectives provided information about the drug court program for this study. Results indicated that although this drug court program was relatively new, it was a highly regarded program both nationally and locally. The program has been implemented successfully, fits well into the local community, has served many eligible persons in the community, and has successfully met its goals. The feedback from each of the agencies and perspectives surveyed was overwhelmingly positive. In addition, results of the intake data provided information about characteristics of clients who terminated from the program compared to clients who graduated. The process evaluation approach provided in-depth information from a variety of perspectives on multiple dimensions of the program.
