Recovery Works expansion will allow Hoosiers charged with or convicted of misdemeanors to receive services

The Indiana Family and Social Services Administration’s Division of Mental Health and Addiction (DMHA) announced December 15, 2020, that its Recovery Works program will expand to serve Hoosiers charged with or convicted of misdemeanor offenders. Recovery Works was established in 2015 as voucher-based system to support partnerships between the criminal justice system and mental health and addiction treatment providers to reduce recidivism and encourage recovery. To date the program has only been available to someone facing a felony charge or with a prior felony conviction. Recovery Works has now developed a pilot program targeting the needs of individuals charged with a misdemeanor crime to help address the gap in mental health and substance use treatment resources for this specific group and to provide access to the necessary treatment at an approved treatment provider.
