The Hawaii Pretrial Intervention Agreement is a program designed to provide an alternative resolution for certain individuals facing criminal charges in Hawaii. This intervention agreement allows eligible defendants to avoid the traditional court process and potential harsh penalties by adhering to a specified set of conditions. One type of Hawaii Pretrial Intervention Agreement is the "Standard Agreement." This agreement is available for individuals charged with non-violent offenses. Participants must complete an intensive supervision program, which may include regular meetings with a probation officer, drug testing, counseling, and community service. Successful completion of the agreement generally results in the dismissal of charges. Another type is the "Substance Abuse Agreement" aimed at defendants struggling with substance abuse issues. This agreement focuses on providing rehabilitation and treatment instead of incarceration. Participants must complete substance abuse treatment programs, attend support group meetings, and adhere to regular drug testing. Successful completion often leads to reduced sentencing or dismissal of charges. The "Mental Health Agreement" is tailored for individuals with mental health conditions who require specialized care. Participants must adhere to mental health treatment plans, attend therapy sessions, and comply with medication requirements. The goal is the defendant's rehabilitation and integration into society, with charges potentially dismissed upon successful completion. The "Youthful Offender Agreement" is specifically designed for young offenders aged 18 to 25. This agreement provides them an opportunity to avoid a permanent criminal record by completing various requirements including community service, counseling, education programs, and restitution. Successful completion of this agreement allows for the sealing or expungement of their criminal record. The Hawaii Pretrial Intervention Agreement aims to offer individuals a chance at rehabilitation and reintroduction into society. By participating in these programs, defendants have an opportunity to avoid the negative consequences of conviction, including potential jail time, fines, and a permanent criminal record.
