In September, several clients from the Franklin County Mental Health Court graduated to different phases of the treatment program. The Mental Health Court Program Docket (MHPD), a collaborative effort between the Franklin County Municipal Court and ADAMH that began in April 2004, was created in order to promote effective treatment as an alternative to incarceration for people whose symptoms of mental illness, history of treatment non-compliance, or have refused to accept treatment, resulting in a recurring pattern of misdemeanor offenses.
