Mental Health Services

Mental Health Services provides diagnostic assessment, treatment and programming utilizing a biopsychosocial model that takes into account physical, psychological, and social factors that impact on the inmate's well being. Services are designed to assist offenders in attaining and/or maintaining their cognitive and emotional well being in the sometimes stressful environment that is associated with incarceration.

Mental Health Services programming promotes and encourages healthy and respectful interactions between offenders and staff and among offenders. The treatment and programming is broadly focused on providing rehabilitative and habilitative programs that will prepare the inmate for successful reintegration into the community and thus lower the risks of recidivism.
