"Marin Alternative Courts for Mental Health and Substance Abuse"
Speakers: Carol Farrer, Deputy Public Defender
Ryan Dunnigan, Psy.D., Star Court Program Supervisor, Marin BHRS
Carol Farrer & Ryan Dunnigan will discuss Marin County Superior Court's alternative probation program for defendants with a serious mental illness, the Support and Treatment After Release (STAR) Court.
STAR Court has had great success in decreasing the frequency of clients’ contacts with the criminal justice system by improving their social functioning skills and by linking them to employment, housing, regular treatment, and support services.
