  The link is in today's show notes. And now, back
• 1:59
  to The Brief. Sacramento County has launched
• 2:03
  a new program designed to connect people leaving
• 2:05
  jail or other correctional facilities with health
• 2:09
  care before they're released. The CalAIM Justice
• 2:12
  Involved Initiative allows eligible Medi -Cal
• 2:16
  members to receive certain services for up to
• 2:18
  90 days before release. Those services can include
• 2:22
  physical and behavioral health care, substance
• 2:25
  use treatment, medication, lab services, and
• 2:29
  re -entry care management. The idea is to prevent
• 2:33
  a gap in care when someone returns to the community,
• 2:36
  particularly for people managing chronic health
• 2:40
  conditions, mental health needs, or substance
• 2:42
  use disorders. Youth in the correctional facilities
• 2:46
  can also receive pre -release services without
• 2:50
  having to meet the adult clinical criteria. More
• 2:55
  information is available through Sac County.
