Treatment Alternatives for Safe Communities (TASC)

Treatment Alternatives for Safe Communities (TASC) is a program that connects people involved in the criminal justice system with treatment and support services for substance use and mental health issues. Instead of focusing solely on punishment, TASC aims to address the root causes of criminal behavior by offering access to treatment. This approach can help individuals recover, reduce recidivism, and promote safer communities. By partnering with healthcare providers and social services, TASC seeks to improve outcomes for individuals and foster a more rehabilitative approach to justice.
