Diversion and Community Alternatives Programs
The Diversion and Community Alternatives Programs Unit creates and administers alternative solutions allowing our community to receive justice while still allowing non-violent offenders to maintain employability and positive community engagement. The Unit encompasses alternatives to prosecution and treatment programs offered by the District Attorney and the courts.
