The MMU is a fully equipped bus that travels to various locations throughout the County.
The justice-involved population, especially after being released from correctional facilities, often have medical and/or psychiatric conditions that need to be addressed. The MMU is a central part of the one-stop shop as clients can access care while they address other needs and set up healthcare appointments in the community. In 2018, Staff from the County’s Behavioral Health Department became a part of the team who assist with psychiatric/counseling needs.
The MMU has Community Health Workers and Social workers who assist clients in accessing services and planning their care. This staff also operates a Transitions Clinic Network program, an in-custody clinic where staff meet with clients prior to release and set up appointments at the MMU or other community locations.
