In an effort to provide a continuum of services
to defendants, the department contracts with area agencies and
individuals. Frequent referrals are made to counselors, physicians,
agencies and organizations for educational, vocational, residential,
medical, mental health, substance abuse, financial, and legal
aid services. Offenders who have not been referred to services
and believe they need help should contact their officer immediately
at (979) 361-4410. As funds allow, the department may pay for
services for indigent offenders and may pay a portion of services
for others in need. In order for the officer to determine whether
the department may pay for services, the Income Assessment Form
must be completed. Click here to download an Income Assessment
Form. If the department provides services at no or reduced cost
and assessments, group meetings, or sessions are missed, the
department will no longer fund any of the services. |
