Abstract
The primary purpose of this research is to illuminate three critical components related to the success of jail diversion programs. First, prior to diversion there is the need to identify those offenders most open to therapeutic services. Second, for those offenders diverted, there must be a proper match between the offender and the mental health professional who provides therapeutic services. Third, quality mental health services must have therapists that are routinely involved in the offender's clinical progress from intake to program completion. Suggestions are offered which may serve to forward the evolution of jail diversion implementation and enhance success rates.
