Cjs also advocates on behalf of those consumers who are rightfully incarcerated to ensure that they receive necessary and appropriate treatment and medication during their tenure in jail. In addition, the program works with local law enforcement officers to train them on how to safely and effectively interact with individuals with mental illness who may be in crisis. Projects for assistance in transition from homelessness ("path"): path provides outreach, intensive case management and housing that will enable adults who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness, and have a serious mental illness, to engage in community based services. In doing so, we also strive to improve consumers health outcomes, participation in mental health services and substance abuse treatment as needed.information & referral: highly qualified mental health professionals will provide compassionate, confidential linkages to service providers who can help you or your loved one with whatever issue is prompting you to seek help.community companions program: a community companion is a volunteer who is matched with someone in the community who is living with a mental illness.

Operating model
- Revenue model
- Grant-funded. 64% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 97% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The required major-donor schedule is missing or incomplete and expenses are high relative to revenue.
