L.A. County Report on Care First, Jails Last

Los Angeles County has implemented a Care First, Jails Last pilot. The $61 million, two-year pilot is working to divert people from jail and instead offer services to help overcome housing instability and mental health and substance abuse challenges. It will also provide a model for how to turn the page on mass incarceration.
