More Information About Collier County Marchman Act Process

Collier County supports the Marchman Act in Florida through their Mental Health Program. The process is in line with Florida Statute 397, which enables some individuals to seek involuntary addiction treatment for their loved ones.

Collier County’s Mental Health Program recommends that you seek an attorney to represent you, although their office will explain procedures, inform you of court requirements, and assist you in contacting a private or state-funded rehab in Florida for addiction treatment. They clearly state they will not provide legal advice or represent you in court.

You will file the required forms in Collier County with the Clerk of Circuit Court.
