"BJA is seeking applications to respond to illicit substance use and misuse to reduce overdose deaths, promote public safety, and support access to treatment and recovery services in the criminal justice system, and strongly encourages tribal communities to consider applying under Category 1c.

This webinar will provide more information about the solicitation and how tribal communities may benefit from this program."

Explore the critical challenges faced by tribal populations during the post-incarceration and post-treatment reentry and reintegration process. Examine issues such as cultural disconnection, limited access to resources, systemic discrimination and stigma, substance use disorders (SUDs), co-occurring mental health issues, and other significant barriers.

Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion (LEAD) is a pre-arrest program aimed at redirecting individuals engaged in low-level criminal activities—often linked to substance use, mental health issues, or quality-of-life concerns—toward community-based services instead of arrest. What sets the MCSO program apart is its treatment-based model focusing on accountability to achieve behavioral change.
