Three Wyoming sheriff's offices join jail mental health hold reimbursement program

Original: Three sheriff’s offices sign up for jail mental health hold reimbursements under new Wyoming law

Three sheriff's offices in Wyoming have enrolled for reimbursements under a new state law covering the cost of holding people in jail on mental health detentions. The law shifts expenses that previously fell on county budgets. Coverage from regional outlets highlights the early adoption as a test of whether the reimbursement program will relieve local governments and improve how people in crisis are handled.

Why now: A new Wyoming mental health law is taking effect and counties are beginning to use its reimbursement provisions.
