Our Approach

LEAD info flyer

LEAD is a proven strategy to better respond to crime and disorder caused by people whose unlawful or problematic conduct stems from mental illness, substance use, trauma, or poverty.  LEAD seeks to reduce harm and increase equity by reorienting the systems that shape health and safety. With LEAD, stakeholders collectively build non-punitive pathways to long-term, community-based care as an alternative to arrest and prosecution for people who commit, or are at high risk of committing, law violations due to their behavioral health challenges.

Connections to Social Services

Travelers Aid Society provides LEAD case management services to our participants. Through July 2024, they have worked with 140 people to facilitate connections to temporary and permanent housing, substance use disorder treatment, mental health services, medical care, securing essential documents, applying for benefits, transportation and food assistance, and providing court support. Our case management model is long-term, grounded in harm reduction, and is designed to support people on their own terms.
