On Thursday, October 23rd, the Mental Health Court celebrated two participants that have completed all five phases of the program, Jennifer Bryant and Daniel Brown.
The Mental Health Court is proud to announce that they have graduated 6 participants in the two years that the program has been open as well as having a zero percent recidivism rate.
Mental Health Court provides its participants with equitable and effective support while demanding accountability and treating each participant with dignity, respect, and room for personal growth. The MHC staff is pleased to celebrate the hard work, dedication, and effort both graduates have demonstrated over the past year.
Judge Katy Olita of the 19th Judicial District presides over the Mental Health Court, and Sharita Brown serves as the Director; both shared words of encouragement during the ceremony, while guest speaker Doctor Kate Cozart highlighted the importance of reframing your mindset and choosing different soundtracks to play to yourself when it comes to your thinking patterns.
Applications to join the program can only be made through legal counsel or by referral from a judge. Congratulations to everyone involved, and thank you to the supporters of this vital program.
