Christina Schultz provided participation figures and said the program uses feedback from graduates to adjust services and remove barriers.
"As of today, we've got 138 clients that have been offered deflection, and 83 of them have entered the program. And as to date, we've had 36 clients graduate, and right now we have 18 clients in the program," Schultz said. She added a breakdown by pathway: 50 clients entered via the on-scene (pathway 1) route and 33 via referrals (pathway 2).
Schultz said the team administers exit surveys to learn what helped participants and to identify barriers. The program also provides some funding to help with sober-living arrangements when residential treatment is part of a participant's plan.
