Mental Health Association Gets $900K Grant For Criminal Justice Initiatives

Credit Matt Trotter / KWGS The Hardesty Family Foundation has awarded Mental Health Association Oklahoma a $900,000 grant to keep criminal justice programs going another two years. Funding will support initiatives like a special services docket that puts case managers in touch with people facing misdemeanor charges often related to homelessness, housing for people who were homeless because of untreated mental illness, and mental health training for law enforcement officers and others involved in the justice system. What this grant addresses is often the root causes of what bring people, particularly low-level offenders, initially into contact with the criminal justice system, said Association CEO Terri White.
