District Attorney Charles J. Hynes is
committed to providing assistance to veterans who have
returned to Brooklyn and have become involved with the
criminal justice system as either offenders or victims.
In this effort the Kings County District Attorneys
Office has partnered with TASC, the case managers of
KCDA’s DTAP Program, the clinicians of the Brooklyn Drug
& Mental Health Courts, the US Department of Veteran
Affairs, and the NYC Criminal Justice Agency to identify
and treat veterans who have come into contact with the
criminal justice system.
Veterans and/or members of their families, members of the defense bar, and members of the community are encouraged to contact my office for information about treatment options for offenders and victims.
