FY2020 Planning and Implementation Guide for JMHCP Purpose Area 1
Embedding Clinicians in Law Enforcement Agencies
This guide from The Council of State Governments Justice Center is intended to support recipients of Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Program grants administered by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance.
