Through the Texas Pre-Arrest Diversion Learning Collaborative, local teams are working together to learn about and implement community-level initiatives to divert people from being arrested.

The Pre-Arrest Diversion Learning Collaborative provides:

  • Hands-on support and resources, including guidance on implementing different diversion models, readiness and implementation assessments, screening tools, and funding opportunities.

The Pre-Arrest Diversion Learning Collaborative focuses on programs that occur in intercepts 0-1 on the Sequential Intercept Model. Examples of pre-arrest diversion programs could include, but are not limited to:

  • Crisis intervention teams

  • Law enforcement and behavioral health co-responder models

  • Mental Health Deputy programs

  • Embedded clinicians in 911 call centers

  • Crisis triage centers/diversion centers

  • Peer respite centers.
