A Systems Approach -ACBH Plan to Reduce Forensic Involvement & Incarceration
Context
•On May 12, 2020, Alameda County Board of Supervisors (BOS) authorized
additional staffing and related costs at the Santa Rita Jail for the Sheriff's
Office and Health Care Services Agency/Behavioral Health (BOS Agenda,
Item 72).
•Alameda County Behavioral Health (ACBH) was directed to develop a plan
to reduce the number of incarcerated individuals with behavioral health
conditions within the jail.
•As a result of this action, ACBH recalibrated it’s 2019 Forensic System
Redesign & Stakeholder work to include a comprehensive plan to respond
to this direction from our County BOS.

Departmental Support, Data Review, & Analysis
•Primary Focus Areas:
❑Develop and communicate a unifying vision for
the Department’s approach to serving individuals
receiving forensic-based care;
❑Provide an array of evidence-based & promising
practices that maximize community-based
services settings and diversion from the justice
system while improving programming across
forensic settings; and
❑Strengthen connections between and across
sectors in order to close any gaps and improve
post release service participation.
Data-Centered Consultation:
❑Assessment & recommendations
related to –
❖Underlying risk factors;
❖ethnic or racial disparities;
❖comprehensive assessment & care
coordination;
❖and general service trends &
effectiveness.

Global Recommendations: Services Delivery & System Change
•Strengthen cultural, ethnic, and linguistically relevant and inclusive service delivery.
•Divert at every intercept, where safe and feasible, from the criminal justice system into treatment
•Formalize use of Sequential Intercept Model for ALL forensic based services
•Comprehensive assessment needed: Assess Risk Needs Responsivity (RNR) at intersection of mental
health, criminogenic risk, and substance use
•Maximize treatment in-custody to stabilize and transition to appropriate mental health setting based
upon RNR approach
•Clearly identify Target Populations (Screening, Assessment, Care Coordination, & Treatment)
