The Office of the Commonwealth's Attorney for Arlington County and the City of Falls Church requested technical assistance to implement a mental health court in their jurisdiction. The requestor withdrew their request.
We are beginning the process of establishing a mental health docket in our jurisdiction. We are attempting to determine what types of additional resources are needed, as our current County budget will only allow in-kind services to be used for the foreseeable future. We are hopeful that the national expertise of the BJA can bring different perspectives on the use of scarce resources that perhaps we have not previously considered. We also wish to explore the existence of protocols in other jurisdictions that we have not considered that may assist with best leveraging the scant resources available.
