Abstract
Alternatives to incarceration are the shared mission of the Veterans Justice Outreach (VJO) program in the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) and the law enforcement community's Crisis Intervention Team (CIT). This article is unique as it presents a collaborative model of these two programs. Further, it outlines a strategy to facilitate care and services for military former service members who are unserved or underserved, or who may not readily identify as veterans. This innovative alliance has the potential to proactively engage former service members in treatment, optimize police intervention, and inform future research on justice-involved veterans.
