Bill Summary

CONCERNING REDUCING THE COMPETENCY WAIT LIST, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, CREATING A WRAPAROUND CARE PROGRAM AND MAKING AND REDUCING AN APPROPRIATION.

AI Summary

This bill creates the Bridges Wraparound Care Program within the Office of Bridges of Colorado to provide community-based services and support as an alternative to competency proceedings for certain individuals in the criminal justice system. The bill requires each judicial district to establish a process to refer eligible defendants to the program, which aims to reduce the competency wait list, increase mental wellness and social stability, and decrease recidivism for low-level offenses. The bill also enhances transparency regarding the state's competency restoration system, including by requiring the public posting of data on bed availability and wait times.
