The textbook "Forensic Mental Health" (2nd Edition) offers advanced undergraduates and practitioners working with justice-involved individuals a systematic approach to institutional coordination. Author Michele P. Bratina illustrates how the Sequential Intercept Model facilitates integration between United States healthcare and criminal justice systems.
The chapters trace the operational continuum from Intercept Zero through Intercept Five. Intercept Zero covers community services, prevention protocols, and the continuum of crisis care, whereas Intercept One details law enforcement officers acting as first responders and specialized police responses. Intercept Two and Intercept Three examine initial detention, court hearings, post-booking diversion strategies, and incarcerated populations in jails. Intercept Four outlines effective reentry programming and reintegration efforts, while Intercept Five addresses mental health management in community corrections, interagency cooperation, and treatment resistance.
This 380-page second edition includes 60 black-and-white illustrations to visually ground complex procedural pathways. The material prepares students and field professionals to navigate multidisciplinary service delivery across justice environments.
