Alternative Sentencing Program

In partnership with the Public Defender’s Office

The Alternative Sentencing Program is designed to reduce incarceration costs by maximizing the community-based services in lieu of incarceration.  Clients collaboratively develop a plan for rehabilitation, treatment, and other services with an assigned Case Worker.  The Case Worker also provides recommendations to courts, referral services for clients and facilitates collaboration between agencies. Additionally, clients that meet criteria for Severe Mental Illness (SMI) will have access to these Southeastern services:

• Case Management
• Psychiatry
• Individual/Group Therapy
• Recovery Services
• Medication Management
