Mental Health Juvenile Justice

The MHJJ program provides specialized support for youth under 18 who are involved with, or at risk of involvement in, the juvenile justice system. Our goal is to connect these young individuals with mental health and social services to foster better outcomes and reduce future involvement with the justice system.

Program Highlights

• Youth Eligibility: Under 18, court-involved, or at-risk of juvenile justice involvement.
• Coverage: Medicaid billing; grant funding covers additional needs.
