New LIMA mental health and addiction specialty court to celebrate first seven grads from the program via Zoom on March 11 at 11 a.m.

The LIMA Program (Law Enforcement Intervention for Mental Health and Addiction) is a nine to 12 month pre-booking diversion program developed to address low-level drug crimes.

The program enables Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) officers to redirect those with low-level drug related charges to engage in community based services. The goal is to divert eligible individuals to services to improve public safety and reduce criminal activity. Having law enforcement divert individuals away from the justice system to community-based services for treatment and life-skills training improves the likelihood that participants will achieve success. Participants must have a chemical dependency issue and be willing to engage in treatment services throughout their participation in the LIMA Program.

Participants will be referred to services based on their needs including:

u00b7 Individual and group substance abuse counseling provided

u00b7 Mental health and co-occurring counseling provided

u00b7 Collaborative case management

u00b7 Detoxification services

u00b7 Weekly/biweekly meetings with case manager

u00b7 Referrals to sober living, low income housing, and/or temporary/transitional housing and housing services

u00b7 Assistance with secure vital documents and establishment of positive support system

Eligibility is based on identified alcohol/substance abuse disorder, No history of drug sales or drug trafficking, and Violent criminal history may disqualify an application. No Sex offenders will be admitted to the program.
