Better understand challenges at the intersection of behavioral health and the juvenile justice system, including key population trends;
Map out how youth encounter and move through the juvenile justice system using the Texas Youth Sequential Intercept Model and the Texas Family Code;
Learn about promising practices to support early identification, crisis intervention, and diversion to treatment for youth with MI, SUD and IDD;
