Abstract Details

2021, BA, Kent State University, College of Arts and Sciences / Department of Political Science.
The criminal justice system has been affected by a mental health crisis for decades. This paper examines how the potential improved collaboration of mental health and social services would influence the criminal justice system. Addressed is the history of mental health treatment within the country and the disadvantages of past policies which hindered development of key programs. The advantages and disadvantages of theoretical and current policies are discussed and analyzed. This paper also investigates the real-time implementation of reform efforts within the city of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County as well as the intended effects of these changes on the city justice system and community as a whole.
