(c) The minor shall execute a written agreement as to his or her participation in the program and shall agree to all of the terms and conditions of the program, including but not limited to the possibility of sanctions or incarceration for failing to abide or comply with the terms of the program.
(d) In addition to any conditions authorized under Sections 5-505, 5-710, and 5-715, the court may order the minor to complete substance abuse treatment in an outpatient, inpatient, residential, or detention-based custodial treatment program.

(e) The drug court program shall include a regimen of graduated requirements and rewards and sanctions, including but not limited to: fines, costs, restitution, public service employment, incarceration of up to 120 days, individual and group therapy, drug analysis testing, close monitoring by the court at a minimum of once every 30 days and supervision of progress, educational or vocational counseling as appropriate, and other requirements necessary to fulfill the drug court program.
