Time:

The Stepping Up Six Questions framework encourages counties to focus their efforts on impacting one or more of the four key measures for people who have mental illnesses: (1) jail bookings; (2) jail length of stay; (3) connections to treatment; and (4) recidivism. The next series of Stepping Up webinars will focus on providing counties with the tools they need to collect accurate data on each of these measures and use this data to inform policy and practice decisions.

Join the Stepping Up partners for the first webinar in the four key measures series, where a national expert and representatives from Pima County, AZ, will provide an overview of each of the key measures, describe strategies for reducing the number of jail bookings for people who have mental illnesses, and outline data points to collect, analyze, and track over time.
