| | 3/21/2012 | | Mental Health Project | The Mental Health Project of the Urban Justice Center (MHP) seeks an advocate to advance the work of our criminal justice advocacy program. The Criminal Justice Advocate will support our litigation efforts to ensure that people receiving mental health treatment in New York jails and prisons are provided with appropriate discharge planning services before they are released from custody and will also be actively involved in our work to fight the criminalization of mental illness through legislative advocacy and community education.
MHP aims to break the cycle of hospitalization, homelessness, and incarceration for low-income New Yorkers with psychiatric disabilities. Through the class action lawsuit, Brad H. v. City of New York, MHP challenged New York City’s practice of discharging incarcerated people with psychiatric disabilities from the Rikers Island in the middle of the night with only a $3 Metrocard and $1.50 in cash, without any psychiatric medication or referral to services. This lawsuit established a right to discharge planning for people who receive mental health treatment while incarcerated in a city jail. In 2003 the lawsuit was settled, and the City agreed to provide class members with medication, aftercare, benefits, housing, and transportation.
The Criminal Justice Advocate will:
• Assist in monitoring and enforcing compliance with the Brad H. settlement;
• Visit city jails regularly to interview people receiving mental health treatment about their discharge planning needs and whether those needs are being met;
• Submit written complaints to the City regarding class members’ discharge planning needs;
• Interview individuals with psychiatric disabilities released from state prison on parole;
• Respond to calls and letters from people in jail and prison, their families, and others regarding discharge planning issues and advocate for individuals to enforce their rights to discharge planning services;
• Exercise discretion and independent judgment with regard to client matters;
• Conduct trainings on the criminal justice system and the rights of Brad H. class members;
• Assist MHP’s Director of Criminal Justice Advocacy; and
• Perform administrative and clerical duties as appropriate.
