Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 26 May 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study evaluates the Rochester Forensic Assertive Community Treatment (R-FACT) model in Minnesota. R-FACT is an enhanced version of Assertive Community Treatment designed to support individuals with serious mental illness who are involved in the criminal justice system. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either the R-FACT intervention or standard outpatient mental health services. The study examines whether R-FACT reduces criminal justice involvement, improves mental health outcomes, and enhances community functioning compared to usual care over a 24-month follow-up period.
