ABSTRACT
There is an overrepresentation of persons with co-occurring disorders (COD) involved in the criminal justice system. The provision of integrated services to persons with COD has been identified as an evidence-based practice (EBP), and data suggests that positive public safety and health outcomes for justice involved persons with COD are associated with integrated program models as well. Sadly, in real world settings the vast majority of persons with COD, including those with histories of justice involvement, do not have access to integrated care. This paper will review the research associated with integrated treatment, highlight efforts to adapt integrated treatment for justice involved persons with COD, and describe efforts along a justice continuum to identify and link these persons to integrated treatment.
