The Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Program (JMHCP) promotes innovative cross-system collaboration and provides grants directly to states, local governments, and federally recognized  Indian tribes. It is designed to improve responses to people with mental illnesses who are involved  in the criminal justice system. JMHCP funding requires collaboration with a mental health agency.
