Just Desserts

Court Incentives Group

With representation from a variety of organisations and individuals, Just Desserts was formed to assist and complement the work of the Court Mandated Drug (CMD) treatment program of the Magistrates Court in Tasmania.

The mission of Just Desserts is to assist in improving the ‘incentives’ side of the CMD program. Working with community members, the key task is to establish and maintain a wide range of tangible rewards for participants in the CMD program as they achieve various stage-related goals.
