On Thursday, California Governor Gavin Newsom unveiled the “CARE” court system to address individuals struggling with mental illness, substance abuse and homelessness. State officials unveiled a program Thursday intended to increase support for California residents who struggle with severe mental illness, substance abuse issues and homelessness.
Through the Care Court system, people suffering from mental illness or severe addiction could be sent before a superior court judge if recommended by a family member or social worker who believes the person cannot adequately care for themselves. “ puts the person with lived experience, puts the people who are suffering on the street at the center of treatment and works to ensure they are empowered during and after effective treatment promotes their overall mental and social stability,” state Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly said Thursday.
He added that many who would be eligible for Care Court treatment would not be new to the court system and may already be involved in the conservatorship process or could be at risk of arrest. Ghaly estimated the state has between 7,000 and 12,000 residents who would be eligible for the Care Court program, including those who would be eligible even if they are not homeless.
