Webinar: RSAT Correctional Policy and Planning: Preparing for National Health Reform, Advocates for Human Potential, Inc.

Description: Although many criminal justice programs across the country, especially RSAT programs, do a good job of identifying and developing partnerships with existing treatment and recovery support resources for inmates after release, many of these programs are underfunded, time-limited and stretched to capacity, reaching only a tiny proportion of the population in need. Fortunately, healthcare reform creates an opportunity for RSAT inmates to access primary care and behavioral health services upon release. This webinar discusses reentry from RSAT treatment within the context of health reform and discusses strategies to connect participants with essential treatment to preserve the gains made in RSAT treatment programs.
