Mental Health Courts Learning Sites  
The learning sites--which represent a wide variety of program models and geographic locations--host site visits from other jurisdictions, answer questions from the field, and work with BJA and the Justice Center to assess and improve their own program operations.

Click on the snapshots or the longer program descriptions to learn more about each of the learning sites. Any questions can be directed to the mental health courts (contact information provided on each of the documents) or to Lauren Almquist of the Justice Center (lalmquist@csg.org; 646-383-5743).
