In September 2002, IDPH was awarded a grant from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, Bureau of Justice Assistance to implement substance abuse treatment services in a jail setting. Treatment services are provided to offenders in Polk County, Scott County, Story County, and Woodbury County Jails during incarceration and following their release from jail. The Consortium is conducting an independent follow-up evaluation to assist in determining the effectiveness of treatment services. This project ended in 2012.
