Program Coordinator - Denver County Court

Program Coordinator

Denver County Court is seeking a Program Coordinator to support competency programming, including the Competency Support Docket (CSD) and Competency Diversion Program (CD).

Denver County Court's Competency Diversion program serves individuals with misdemeanor and felony level offenses, while the Competency Support Docket is specific to individuals with misdemeanor charges. Both the docket and CD program work to identify individuals who are not likely competent to proceed and divert or deflect them to community mental health treatment and services, resulting in the dismissal of charges, and thus reduces the filing of formal competency in the Court system.
