  • Day one will feature learning opportunities with leading behavioral health and corrections experts and workshops designed to meet jurisdictions where they are at in the implementation process.

  • Day two site teams will work independently to draft an action-oriented workplan. There will be opportunities to engage directly with technical assistance providers if sites would like additional support.
