520 |aIn 2005, Correctional Services Canada (CSC) implemented the Community Mental Health Initiative (CMHI) to prepare offenders with serious mental disorders for release into the community by strengthening the continuum of specialized mental health support and providing continuity of support from institutions to the community. In 2010, a study found preliminary evidence for the initiative’s effectiveness in reducing returns to custody and recidivism, but the follow-up period was brief. An update that examined outcomes for participants in the initiative over a more extended time period was required to evaluate the CMHI’s effectiveness in promoting the safe transition of offenders into the community and reducing recidivism. The following three CMHI treatment groups, based on the type of services received, were compared to offenders who met the criteria for participation in CMHI (n = 269), but were released prior to implementation of the initiative: (1) participated in clinical discharge planning (CDP; n = 65) only; (2) participated in community mental health specialist services (CMHS; n = 249) only; and (3) participated in both CDP and CMHS (n = 63).
