The Ringwood ARC is a specialist therapeutic court designed to help people with a mental illness and/or cognitive impairment — including intellectual disability, acquired brain injury, and autism spectrum disorder — address the underlying factors contributing to their offending behaviour, with the ARC Magistrate, prosecution, support staff, the accused person, and their family working collaboratively at the same table during review hearings in a solution-focused environment.

The Ringwood ARC court schedule covers Assessment and Referral Court hearings for eligible defendants charged with summary or indictable offences who have a diagnosed mental illness, cognitive impairment, acquired brain injury, or autism spectrum disorder — with the ARC case management team at Ringwood connecting participants to health, housing, disability, and community support services across Melbourne's eastern suburbs and the Yarra Ranges.
