Chapter 137 — Judgment and Execution; Parole and Probation by the Court
ORS 137.687 Deflection program data, standards and best practices
The Oregon Criminal Justice Commission shall establish a statewide system for tracking simple, clear and meaningful data concerning deflection program outcomes, including connections to social services and criminal justice system avoidance, and other data deemed relevant that is timely and easily accessed to inform best practices and improve outcomes for individual program participants.
The commission shall maintain a list of deflection programs operating within this state, and shall make the list publicly available on the website of the commission.
As used in this section, “deflection program” means a collaborative program between law enforcement agencies and behavioral health entities or community-based social service organizations that assists individuals who may have substance use disorder, another behavioral health disorder or co-occurring disorders, and who often have other service needs, to create community-based pathways to treatment, recovery support services, housing, case management or other services.
Note: 137.687 and 137.688 were enacted into law by the Legislative Assembly but were not added to or made a part of ORS chapter 137 or any series therein by legislative action. See Preface to Oregon Revised Statutes for further explanation.
