In this episode of Justice and Recovery: Exploring Texas Specialty Court Programs, we sit down with Erin Garza, North Texas Regional Account Manager for Smart Start—a company that’s been saving lives through alcohol monitoring technology for over 30 years.
A former Dallas County probation officer, Erin shares her journey into the field and gives us an inside look at how Smart Start’s ignition interlock and portable alcohol monitoring devices go beyond compliance—they create accountability, support recovery, and help participants succeed. With no long-term contracts, specialty court discounts, and over 30 service centers in North Texas alone, Smart Start continues to evolve with the needs of courts and clients alike.
Whether you’re a judge, coordinator, or treatment provider, this episode is a must-listen for understanding the role technology can play in your program.
