Abstract
This chapter reviews and critically analyzes the evidence for interventions for justice-involved individuals. The focus in particular is on interventions that reduce the risk of subsequent criminal offending. However, given the high prevalence of behavioral health disorders in this population, we also address the debate about whether such interventions should include a behavioral health component—and emphasize the value of interventions that have the potential to both improve behavioral health and reduce criminal offending risk.
