Jail Mental Health Pilot Program

The program provides mental health services for individuals housed in local and regional jails. JMHPP sites are required to collect and report quarterly qualitative and quantitative data on mental health screenings and assessments, treatment plans and services provided to inmates, jail safety incidents, provision of appropriate services after release, and recidivism rates (re-arrest or re-incarceration within 90 days after release). Currently six JMHPP sites in Virginia receive level grant funding.
