Of these, approximately 16% suffer from a serious mental disorder
Additionally, in 2005, 56% of state prisoners and 64% of local jail inmates reported symptoms of a mental disorder
We invite you to explore the many reasons why correctional healthcare has become the industry of choice for so many mental health care professionals across the nation:
