Acerca de este recurso
This is a voluntary initiative designed for individuals with mental health issues who are undergoing prosecution, providing them with access to public mental health services to help decrease the likelihood of reoffending. Instead of conventional sentencing, defendants are mandated to receive treatment through the court.
Intake Process: Referrals are accepted from various sources including judges, defense attorneys, social workers, prosecutors, victim advocates, peer specialists, probation mental health specialists, court clinicians, and the program manager. The Court Monitor evaluates the defendant's suitability for the Mental Health Court. Contact for specific dates and times when court services are available.
Cost: There are no fees associated.
