General Project Information
Project Title: HERON-PEACOCK: SUPPORTIVE HOUSING TO PREVENT
RECIDIVISM OR DIVERSION OF ADULTS WITH MENTALLY
ILLNESS AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE
Subgrant Recipient: Monroe County Board of Commissioners
Implementing Agency: Monroe County Board of Commissioners
Project Start Date: 10/1/2012 End Date: 9/30/2013
Problem Identification
The problem that this program works to address is the incarceration of mentally ill persons who
are also substance abusers. Locally and nationally,jails/prisons contain a significant and growing
number non-violent mentally ill people, because of the lack of alternatives to detention. Monroe
County has a disproportionate numbers of mentally ill and substance abusers in our County.
Statistically, mentally ill adults are twice as likely to be substance abusers as non-mentally ill
adults. As a result, we have witnessed an escalation of unemployment, homelessness, and
repeat incarceration of people who are mentally ill. Almost all jail inmates with co-occurring
mental illness and substance use disorders will leave correctional settings and return to the
community. Therefore, the jails, prisons, and streets have now become the alternatives to
therapeutic programs.
Monroe County Sheriffs Office reports that currently about 18% of those in the Monroe County
Detention Center have some type of mental illness. The Detention Center reports that 80%+ of
those arrested have substance abuse problems. The problem of incarceration of adults with
mental illness and substance abuse, especially those who are not major offenders, is very serious
and is growing.
Heron-Peacock Supported Living offers a diversion program for mentally ill people who are also
substance abusers. The program offers case management services including assessments,
substance abuse counseling and recovery support, mental health services, and drug testing
services. Heron Peacock is the only residential facility in Monroe County for this population. By
directing this type of client to Heron-Peacock, whether through diversion upon entry to the criminal
justice system or at reentry, we can provide the case management services and the supportive
services necessary for successful community integration, therefore, decreasing the likelihood of
recidivism. Heron Peacock is a recognized effective asset by the Monroe County Sheriffs Office.
Heron-Peacock not only offers a more effective recovery environment than alternatives such as
homelessness, correctional institutions, and State psychiatric hospitals, we are considerably more
cost-effective. The past three years, 14 formerly incarcerated clients were among those that
moved from our program to independence in the community and within that timeframe have not
again entered the criminal justice system.
Project Summary (Scope of Work)
Heron-Peacock Supported Living is pleased to continue our successful partnership with Monroe
County with the continuation of our Supportive Housing program designed to prevent recidivisim
and/or divert adults with mental illness and substance abuse from the criminal justice system.
