NEXT STEPS

Transition from Jail to Community Reentry in Washtenaw County

LEAD LAW ENFORCEMENT ASSISTED DIVERSION

What is LEAD • Pre-booking diversion program

• Developed in Seattle

• Addresses low-level crimes/issues • Minor drug charges

• Homelessness/loitering

• Mental health crisis

• Allows law enforcement to redirect low-level

offenders to services instead of jail or prosecution

• Facilitated by entire criminal justice system

History of LEAD

• Disproportionate minority contacts and arrests

• Numerous court cases due to this fact

• Jail overcrowding

• Inability to expand jail

“So what do we do?”

Process of LEAD 1. Arrest is made

2. Officer diverts from booking and into LEAD

3. LEAD staff provide immediate assessment and

offer crisis assistance

4. Over time provide case management services 1. Must complete intake within 30 days of referral

2. Must sign a release in order to share information

5. Officer completes case for prosecutor

6. Held by prosecutor as long as individual is

progressing

Reflections • Provides relief to neighborhoods

• Relief and hope to individuals o long-term addiction

o mental health crisis

o Housing crisis

• Harm reduction working hand-in-hand with Law

Enforcement

• Changing the cycle

• We can use the power of the law to nudge people

toward an outcome that is better for them and the

community

What is Harm Reduction • An approach for treatment that involves a set of

practical techniques that are openly negotiated

with clients around what is most likely to be

achieved.

• The focus is on reducing the negative

consequences and risky behaviors of substance use

while enhancing an individual’s motivation for

change.

Treatment • An approach for treatment that focuses on

outreach, engagement and harm reduction.

• Co-occurring treatment focus

• Community collaboration between criminal justice

system and treatment providers.
