The project will build upon the success of the McLean County Adult Drug Court and the McLean County Recovery Court. Existing programs will be leveraged to promote major systems transformation. Proposed enhancements include: the development of a Court Collaborative to include the judiciary, community-based behavioral health treatment providers, key local and state agencies, and consumers. The ATCC will provide leadership and guidance in the development of the McLean County Behavioral Health/Criminal Justice Collaborative and promote evidence-based practices through extensive training and technical assistance aimed at service providers and criminal justice staff; promote service integration by incorporating new behavioral health treatments and recovery support services that are evidence-based and consumer-driven; Comprehensive evaluation of the McLean County Behavioral Health/Criminal Justice Collaborative resulting in broadening evidence-based practice and knowledge and leading to continuous quality improvement. The objectives are to prevent and reduce relapse, reduce recidivism, and promote sustained recovery and self-sufficiency among participants enrolled in either the McLean County Drug Court or the McLean County Recovery Court. All participants will have a substance use, mental health or co-occurring substance use and mental health diagnosis.
