KINGMAN – On Wednesday, August 28, members of the Kingman Police Department (KPD) Honor Guard where recognized for their contributions to the Kingman Veterans Treatment Court (VTC). The VTC has held 16 graduation ceremonies over the past four years, celebrating the graduation of 32 veterans.
The KPD honor guard, with assistance of the Mohave County Sheriff’s Office honor guard, has opened each ceremony with presentation of our nation’s colors.
VTC is a problem-solving court that is intended to serve veterans struggling with addiction, serious mental illness, post-traumatic stress disorder, and/or re-occurring disorders as well as any other issues the veteran may have, including housing, employment, and education. The court promotes sobriety, recovery, and stability through a coordinated response that involves cooperation and collaboration with the city attorney, defense counsel, the Veterans Administration and other local agencies to give each participant the opportunity to be a productive, healthy veteran and citizen.
