Comparing mental health and addiction care in forensic settings
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study follows people in forensic psychiatric care in Italy or California who have both a mental health condition and a substance use disorder. The goal is to see how well the two different legal and treatment systems work over three years, which could help improve care.
