Our Mission
The mission of the 21st District Recovery Court is to end the cycle of addiction and crime in our community by providing accountability and compassion to non-violent offenders in the criminal justice system. In doing so, lives are saved, families are restored and communities become safer and more productive.
Our History
With a proven record of reducing recidivism and saving taxpayer money, the 21st Judicial District Recovery Court program began in 2001 with the Honorable Timothy L. Easter, Honorable Donald P. Harris and coordinator, Gayle Moyer Harris.
The organization received its nonprofit status in April 2002 and the first participants were accepted into the two-year program in August 2002. Since this time, more than 300 individuals have actively participated in Recovery Court with more than 200 graduating.
In the last five years, Recovery Court has seen 90 percent of its participants maintain full or part-time employment. Participants have also regained custody of their children and re-established relationships with their families. Others have continued their education, some receiving a GED, high school diploma or pursuing higher education. Most importantly, a significant majority of graduates remain productive members of society years after completing the program.

The 21st District Recovery Court Annual Community Luncheon is an opportunity to honor an individual who has made significant contributions to the Recovery Court and its mission. This year the 21 Recovery Court will recognize and honor Mr. Jeffrey D. Mosely.
Jeffrey D. Moseley is a 1986 graduate of Vanderbilt University School of Law. He became an Associate at Buerger, Moseley & Carson in 1987, partner in 1990 and senior partner in 2002 upon the retirement of founding partner Richard Buerger.
Jeff’s practice is focused on health care law. He represents hospitals throughout the United States on matters related to medical staff issues, including peer review and credentialing, board and medical staff bylaws, operational issues, EMTALA and contract matters. His practice also extends to municipal law.
Because of our sponsors, we are able to continue our mission of providing non-adversarial, cost-effective treatment alternatives to traditional sentencing for non-violent offenders whose crimes result from drug or alcohol addiction. Help us continue our work by becoming a sponsor today.
