Community Services and Supports:

Intercept 1: Pre-arrest Diversion
Law Enforcement / Emergency Services
Impact
People with mental illness require specialized approaches during contact with police, a substantial amount of time is
spent on these contacts.
Existing
Services
• Existing options for police are detention or 302. 302’s are very time intensive.
• Mobile crisis services
Identified
Needs
•
•
•
•
Potential
Interventions
• Cross-training for Behavioral health and Criminal Justice
• Training specific for first responders (CIT for police, EMS, and 911)
• Explore expanding the 911 system for early identification
• Explore a temporary residential option as a diversion to incarceration
• Additional coordination with existing crisis services to increase utilization, improve interface with police, and
increase diversions
Identification of people, who are involved with MH system, when police are dispatched
Early assessment
Alternatives instead of criminal justice system
Short-term respite
26
Intercept 2: Post-arrest Diversion
27
Initial Detention / Initial Court Hearings
Impact
Many individuals with behavioral health needs have little or no resources & may be detained because
they are unable to post bail and are not offered release on personal recognizance. An absence of
supervised treatment/support alternatives for these offenders may lead to incarceration instead of
more appropriate treatment.
Existing
Services
• Medical assessment and clearance by nurse
Identified
Needs
• Behavioral health evaluation and assessment earlier in CJ process
Potential
Interventions
• Behavioral health evaluation and assessment at booking and preliminary arraignment
Intercept 3: Jail / Court Diversion
Impact
Opportunity for plea agreement and diversion to connect to appropriate community resources
Existing
Services
•
•
•
•
Identified
Needs
• Not all police and court staff are aware of existing in-house MH forensic programs at courthouse
Potential
Interventions
• Additional cross-training on existing on-site MH assessment services to increase awareness of
existing diversion options
MH assessment service at courthouse for adults and juveniles
DUI assessment program
Jail-based COD assessments and treatment (mental health and substance abuse)
Additional jail-based services include anger management, parenting, and education classes

Existing
Services
•
•
•
•
Identified
Needs
Probation/parole officers may not be aware of available Behavioral health services that can serve as
a diversion to incarceration given a violation of probation/parole.
Potential
Interventions
• Training for probation/parole officers on existing crisis / respite services to provide alternatives to
incarceration.
• Explore a temporary residential option as a diversion to incarceration.
• Cross-functional reentry teams that include criminal justice and behavioral health supports
