- Grant Description
- The Mental Health Courts Program (42 U.S.C. 3796ii) helps improve the social functioning of qualified offenders with mental illness, mental retardation, or co-occurring mental illness and substance abuse disorders through treatment, supervision, stable employment, housing, and support services. BJA is issuing a call for concept papers from state, local, or tribal governments, including courts, to fund one additional mental health court demonstration project that reflects innovative and collaborative efforts for systemwide court improvements for offenders with mental disabilities or illnesses. The successful applicant will be asked to submit a more detailed application, including a complete budget and budget narrative, time and task plan, and letters of support. BJA is supported in this effort by its technical assistance provider, the Council of State Governments. For more information, visit www.ojp.usdoj.gov/BJA/grant/mentalhealth.html.
