"In The Sequential Intercept Model and Criminal Justice, Patricia
Griffin and her co-editors have somehow managed to get a Who's Who
of contributors to flesh out the nuanced implications of this
generation's most important conceptual contribution to
community-based services for justice-involved people with mental
illness. The book seamlessly weaves together up-to-the-minute
academic research and down-to-earth clinical practice. It
provides
nothing less than a pellucid roadmap for transforming the highly
contested terrain where the criminal justice and mental health
systems meet and often clash."
--John Monahan, Ph.D., John S. Shannon Distinguished Professor of
Law, and Professor of Psychology, Psychiatry, and Neurobehavioral
Sciences, University of Virginia
"There is widespread agreement among police and mental health
agencies that the criminal justice system is a less-than-ideal way
to serve the needs of people with serious mental illness and their
communities. Instead of hand-wringing over the 'criminalization of
mental illness,' Patricia Griffin and her colleagues have provided
communities with a practical strategy for doing something about it.
The Sequential Intercept Model is proving itself to be the very
best kind of public policy, simultaneously appealing to public
safety, cost-effectiveness, and more humane treatment for people
with serious mental illness. Thanks to a stellar roster of editors
and
chapter authors, we now have a practical guide to providing better,
more humane treatment at much lower cost."
-- Joel A. Dvoskin, PhD, ABPP, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry,
University of Arizona College of Medicine, and Chair, Nevada
Governor's Advisory Council on Behavioral Health and Wellness
"The strongest part of the book is the summary of research on each
aspect of the SIM model, including related HIPAA and mental health
law issues. Illustrations of local applications are
thought-provoking and show the diverse nature of the programs
implemented and the challenges confronted. The book also stands as
a foundation for further research, program and policy development,
and it will be interesting to see what grows from this
foundation."
--Colleen Clark, Research Assistant Professor, Louis de la Parte
Florida Mental Health Institute, University of South Florida
