CHDI Recommendations Reflected in New Legislation

Legislation passed this session ("An Act Concerning the Recommendations of the Juvenile Justice Policy and Oversight Committee") incorporates several behavioral health related recommendations from CHDI's report, "Improving Coordination Between the Juvenile Justice and Behavioral Health Systems in Connecticut" and Connecticut's Children's Behavioral Health Plan (www.plan4children.org). The changes also support the work of Connecticut's School-Based Diversion Initiative.
