Today stakeholders from across the and criminal justice systems (CJS) serving Elko County completed the first half of a two day Sequential Intercept Mapping (SIM) workshop, facilitated by a fantastic team from PRA and funded through a grant from the GAINS Center. The SIM process walks participants through various transition points and settings within the CJS and community services to identify assets, gaps, opportunities, and challenges in building programming to reduce recidivism among people involved in the CJS though addressing mental health and substance use issues when they are at the root of the individual's challenges.

The information gathered during this SIM workshop will be used to develop Elko's new Mental Health Court, which is designed to help people who are in jail due to their mental health challenges get the treatment they need and achieve stability within their lives. *When done correctly and with adequate resources*, mental health and other specialty courts can make a large difference in communities by improving behavioral health outcomes for participants, decreasing re-offense and recidivism, and reducing the use of public funds and other resources otherwise needed for jails, regular courts, and law enforcement calls for service. Good programming can both help people live happier, safer lives AND save tax-payer dollars.
