About the event
Is your jail struggling to serve individuals living with untreated severe mental illness who don't know they are ill?
Is your county using its limited resources to serve those with SMI caught in the revolving door of criminal legal involvement with few positive results
If you answered YES to either of these questions,
join us to learn about a “new” tool in the toolbox for communities who are willing to collaborate with their system
partners to get those in crisis needed treatment so they can get out of your jail and move forward with their lives.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Judges, prosecutors, defense counsel, mental health authorities, mental health
providers, hospital administrators, crisis center administrators, law enforcement,
jail administrators, mental health advocates, and anyone with a desire to help those with untreated severe mental illness who are caught in the revolving door of incarceration due to a lack of insight into their illness.
