Description: The purpose of this earmark is to expand the scope of ongoing Jail Diversion components of the Bexar County Jail Diversion Program. The Bexar County Jail Diversion Program is a comprehensive, coordinated service delivery system community based network of resources focused on identification, diversion from jail and continuity of care for individuals that are about to or have entered the criminal justice system. The Bexar County Jail Diversion program model provides the structure upon which the full continuum of care within the mental health/criminal justice system is reviewed and analyzed such that key change points are identified and targeted, thus resulting in a complete approach to addressing the needs of the mentally ill while providing treatment within the least restrictive and most clinically appropriate setting.
