What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the Department of Justice, in collaboration with the
Department of Corrections and the Department of Health Services, awards grants
to counties and tribes that have established qualifying treatment alternatives and
diversion (TAD) programs that offer alcohol or drug treatment services as
alternatives to prosecution or incarceration in order to reduce recidivism, promote
public safety, and reduce prison and jail populations.
Under this bill, a program funded by a TAD grant need not focus solely on
alcohol and other drug treatment, but may provide treatment programs for a person
who has any mental illness.
