Restoring Competency to Stand Trial: A Guide for Forensic Providers

As the criminal justice system grapples with the increasing number of individuals with mental illness being arrested, the need for effective restoration programs has become a major concern. This manual provides a structured approach to restoring competency to defendants, addressing the challenges of overcrowding, waiting lists, and public cost associated with providing mental health care in jails.

Practical information and resources are included to support forensic providers throughout the restoration process, from initial findings of incompetency to case disposition. The manual offers definitions of court terminology, educational activities, competency tests, court report templates, and a certificate of completion, allowing providers to customize the content to meet specific state statutes.
