The Substance Use, Mental Health, and Justice Lab focuses on addressing critical issues and creating impactful solutions that improve mental health and substance use services, particularly for justice-involved individuals.
We conduct innovative research to address critical issues in substance use, mental health, and justice involvement, advancing equitable policies and practices through impactful solutions. With collaboration among federal, national, state, and local partners, our projects span diverse areas such as substance use treatment access, harm reduction, mental health crisis interventions, person-centered supervision, and forensic peer support.
