DESCRIPTION OVERALL (provided by applicant): This is a second submission of an application that requests funding for an ACISIR focusing on mental health (MH) and substance abuse (SA) services issues that arise when persons with mental illness have encounters with the criminal justice (CJ) system. The Center for Behavioral Health Services & Criminal Justice Research, developed with support from a NIMH developing center grant (P20 MH661170), seeks to (a) improve the ways in which the MH, SA and CJ systems respond to the needs of persons with mental illness and (b) inform the policies and practices that are intended to affect these responses. This objective is accomplished by fostering collaborative, multi-disciplinary research that is informed by the expertise of practitioners, policymakers, advocates, and consumers. The Center is situated at Rutgers University and co- directed by Drs. Nancy Wolff (Rutgers) and Jeffrey Draine (University of Pennsylvania). The Operations, Methods, Research, and Network cores are directed, respectively, by Dr. Wolff; Dr. Steven Belenko; Dr. Draine; and Mr. Richard Baron (with Dr. Wolff). The Rutgers site provides the structure for research and training in MH-SA-CJ systems dynamics and coordinates all Center-related activities. The multi-disciplinary team is situated in a "borderless" research environment that includes researchers and research sites located across the country. Central to the Center's mission is the involvement of stakeholders at all stages of the research and dissemination process while building their capacity to apply research in practice and in policymaking. Together, under the Center's auspices, researchers and stakeholders pursue timely, rigorous and multi-disciplinary MH-SA-CJ services and intervention research. The Network Core focuses on building social networks, through local and web-based communities of practice to facilitate learning about research evidence, research process, practice and policy dynamics, and challenges related to persons with mental illness involved with the CJ system. The proposed advanced center will develop conceptually coherent research and supporting methods, and a series of research initiatives that will culminate in the submission and funding of grant applications that provide findings that will improve practice and policy. The revision includes: adding 7 MH intervention researchers, clarifying the role of culture, diversity, and qualitative methods in our research, and developing three new intervention projects.

描述总体描述（由申请人提供）：这是申请的第二次提交，该申请要求为精神健康（MH）和药物滥用（SA）服务（SA）服务的ACISIR提供资金，而当患有精神疾病的人与刑事司法相遇时会出现的问题（CJ）系统。在NIMH开发中心赠款（P20 MH661170）的支持下开发的行为健康服务与刑事司法研究中心，试图（a）改善MH，SA和CJ系统应对精神精神的需求的方式疾病和（b）通知旨在影响这些反应的政策和实践。这一目标是通过培养合作，多学科研究来实现的，该研究由从业者，政策制定者，倡导者和消费者的专业知识所告知。该中心位于罗格斯大学，由博士合作。南希·沃尔夫（Rutgers）和杰弗里·德莱（Jeffrey Draine）（宾夕法尼亚大学）。 Wolff博士分别指示操作，方法，研究和网络核心。史蒂文·贝伦科（Steven Belenko）博士； Draine博士；还有理查德·巴伦（Richard Baron）先生（与沃尔夫（Wolff）博士一起）。 Rutgers站点为MH-SA-CJ系统动力学的研究和培训提供了结构，并协调所有与中心相关的活动。多学科团队位于“无边界”研究环境中，其中包括位于全国各地的研究人员和研究地点。该中心任务的核心是在研究和传播过程的各个阶段的利益相关者参与，同时建立了在实践和决策中应用研究的能力。在该中心的主持下，研究人员和利益相关者共同追求及时，严格和多学科的MH-SA-CJ服务和干预研究。网络核心致力于通过基于本地和网络的实践社区建立社交网络，以促进学习研究证据，研究过程，实践和政策动态以及与CJ系统有关的精神疾病患者的挑战。拟议的高级中心将在概念上开发一致的研究和支持方法，以及一系列的研究计划，这些计划将在提交和资助赠款申请的提交和资金中，这些授予申请提供了可以改善实践和政策的发现。修订包括：添加7个MH干预研究人员，阐明我们的研究中文化，多样性和定性方法的作用，并开发三个新的干预项目。
