Corrections / Forensics Mental Health Links
My job requires working with folks who have issues with the correctional system as well as with mental health services. Some of the people with whom I work have been acquitted of crimes committed on the basis that they were "not guilty by reason of insanity" (or "NGRI"). || Since so many people are also incarcerated, it seemed necessary to develop this set of resource links as well. Hope they are useful.
