abstract="The relationship between criminal justice involvement and housing among homeless persons with co-occurring disorders was examined. Program participants assisted in moving to stable housing were interviewed at baseline, six months, and discharge. Those who remained homeless at follow-up and discharge had significantly more time in jail in the past month than those who were housed. However, criminal justice involvement was not significantly related to housing status at the six month follow-up or discharge. <br><br>FINDINGS suggest that housing people with complex behavioral health issues reduces the likelihood of further criminal justice involvement.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
