During the TTA status check call, TTA staff help grantees think through partnerships and relationships as they progress through their projects, help grantees document and highlight their successes, offer feedback, and serve as a bridge between resources and BJA staff.

The Deflection Mentoring Initiative provides communities interested in starting deflection programs the opportunity to learn from established or innovative programs that have shown success in meeting the treatment needs of individuals with a substance use disorder, and in some cases an overdose. During site visits, mentors will provide opportunities for observation and peer-to-peer exchanges, including opportunities to observe the law enforcement/first responder diversion or referral program in action and allowing mentee sites to engage with program personnel. Mentee match is pending.
