Court Support Services
Mental Health Court Support Services is a voluntary program that assists individuals that have a mental health issue and are involved in the criminal justice system. Assistance is offered in two ways. Firstly, we assist those accused of minor criminal offenses to be diverted out of the criminal justice system. These individuals are instead referred to the mental health system where they can get the appropriate supports. The goal is to minimize future involvement with the criminal justice system. Secondly, we assist persons with more serious charges to access mental health support while in the midst of court proceedings.
Release From Custody Services
This service provides clients with a serious mental illness, developmental disability or head injury that are housed in a correctional facility assistance to reintegrate back into the community in a safe and supportive manner.
