The Department of Corrections (DOC) provides prison-based mental health services to prisoners with mental or behavioral disorders housed in reception centers, general population, or segregation units. Psychological Services Units (PSU's), located at each prison, are operated by the DOC's Bureau of Health Care Services.

The DOC contracts with the Department of Community Health for the provision of services to the seriously mentally ill. These services are provided through the Corrections Mental Health Program (CMHP). As of Spring 2002, the total number of prisoners on active treatment status in the CMHP was approximately 2,880 or 5.9% of the total population of 48,920 prisoners in DOC prisons and camps.

These combined services constitute a unified, multilevel continuum of mental health services.
