WELCOME TO THE INSTITUTE FOR PUBLIC HEALTH AND JUSTICE WEBPAGE!

 

The Institute is a policy, research, training, and technical assistance enterprise positioned at the intersection of behavioral health policy and practice, and the legal system.  Many behavioral and other health conditions have social determinants.  At the Institute, we seek to bridge the divide between prevention and treatment of behavioral health issues (especially mental health and substance use conditions) and the negative impacts on individual, families and communities.  We stand ready to serve in partnership with local and state government, foundations, and agencies. 

I hope this website is valuable resource to you.  Feel free to contact us for more information about specific projects and your need, as well as additional information on our current work.    

Debra K. DePrato, M.D.
