Bringing NIATx to Corrections: Lessons Learned from Three Pilot Studies
This report documents the key lessons learned and recommendations to help criminal justice and substance use treatment systems improve transitions between institutional and community care.

Through a competitive application process, three pilot sites were selected to work with the CSG Justice Center and NIATx from 2011 to 2013:
- DeKalb County, Georgia
