Summary/Notes: TASC desires to open a Supportive Release Center (SRC) for inmates leaving the Cook County Jail who wish to obtain treatment for substance abuse or mental health disorders. The SRC will connect clients to health care and other supportive services (housing, food, employment, etc.) that will help stabilize them in the community, improve their health, reduce recidivism and reduce the burden on the criminal justice system.
TASC will install and maintain a mobile office unit and a self-contained water and waste treatment unit on the site which will function as the Supportive Release Center. The SRC will operate from Monday at 7:00 am through Saturday at 7:00 am and will be staffed by three shifts of TASC and security personnel.
