Principles of Community-Based Behavioral Health Services for Justice Involved Individuals: A Research-Based Guide

SAMHSA recently released a new guide, Principles of Community-Based Behavioral Health Services for Criminal Justice Involved Individuals: A Research-Based Guide (Principles).The Principles provide a foundation for realizing a quality, community-based behavioral health treatment system that is responsive to all individuals with mental and substance use disorders. The Principles guide is composed of eight guiding principles, frequently asked questions, resources for further reading, and a glossary of terms for behavioral health providers and criminal justice professionals.

Note:  SAMHSA will hold a webinar to review the Principles. See details in the Events section.
