## Resource

Hudson County is launching a bold new diversion program that lets people facing certain criminal charges get help instead of jail—by connecting them with mental health treatment and community support. Led by the Prosecutor’s Office and backed by state grants, this voluntary initiative teams up courts, lawyers, and mental health experts to evaluate applicants and create personalized recovery plans. The goal? Address root causes of crime through care, not punishment—and build safer communities by helping individuals heal before they cycle back into the system.
