RFP for Case Management for Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion (LEAD)

This RFP sought to identify a provider to pilot a Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion program (LEAD or the LEAD Program) in three small municipal Cohorts within the county. LEAD is a national model that aims to provide in-the-field, long-term, non-coercive, Harm Reduction-based case management services to individuals who regularly encounter the criminal legal system because of unmet behavioral health and human service needs. Research suggests that LEAD can reduce unnecessary criminal legal system involvement for participants, while improving their lives and access to services.
