Texas Correctional Office on Offenders with Medical or Mental Impairments (TCOOMMI)

The TCOOMMI program serves mental health consumers who are also engaged in the legal system. Master's Level assessment therapists from the Admission Unit screen referrals from the probation and parole departments to determine if the individual meets admission criteria. Case managers work with adult consumers eligible for ongoing services in collaboration with a designated mental health probation or parole officer. Continuity of care services for any individual returning from prison into our catchment area is also a service provided—a supervisor and support staff round out the staff in the TCOOMMI program. The overall goal of the TCOOMMI program is to provide comprehensive services to help keep these consumers from re-offending and going to prison.
