Targeted Capacity Expansion (TCE) Grants for Jail Diversion Programs: SAMHSA's Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) announces the availability of Fiscal Year 2005 funds for programs to divert individuals with mental illness from the criminal justice system to community-based systems with integrated mental health and substance abuse treatment and appropriate support services. The purpose of the TCE Grants for Jail Diversion Programs is to promote the transformation of systems to improve services for justice-involved adults with mental illness. One of the recommendations from the final report of the President's New Freedom Commission on Mental Health was for widespread adoption of adult criminal justice diversion and re-entry strategies to avoid the unnecessary criminalization and extended incarceration of non-violent adult offenders with mental illnesses. The TCE Grants for Jail Diversion Program provides communities the opportunity to address this key recommendation.
