Research study aiming to understand and clarify the nature of implicit theories currently held about offenders with mental health problems. The researchers surveyed a range of agencies, including criminal justice, mental health and social services organisations, as well as lay people. The core of the research rests on the premise that a greater understanding of professional and lay perspectives towards mentally ill offenders will help elucidate conflicting assumptions between agencies which, by their nature, may be disrupting the effective implementation of a number of key criminological and clinical policy initiatives involving the care and management of people with mental health problems. Looks in particular at community based psychiatric programmes, diversion, and the need to strengthen inter-agency cooperation.
