Community Conversation: Breaking the Cycle - Mental Health and Incarceration
Join us for a thought-provoking and insightful webinar as we delve into the critical intersection of mental health and incarceration. In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, we will explore the continued need for reform as well as the work of advocates that has already been taken to prioritize treatment and rehabilitation over incarceration, with a particular focus on the transformative policies of State Question 780 and State Question 781.
During this webinar, we will bring together a panel of experts, advocates, and policymakers who are at the forefront of mental health reform and criminal justice advocacy. Through engaging discussions and shared experiences, we will shed light on the challenges faced by individuals with mental health conditions within the criminal justice system and highlight the positive changes that can be achieved when treatment becomes the priority.
