The Delaware County Law Enforcement Treatment Initiative (LETI) Program, coordinated by the PA Attorney General’s Office and the Delaware County District Attorney’s Office, represents a groundbreaking collaboration between law enforcement agencies and treatment providers to address substance use within the community.

LETI embodies a proactive and compassionate approach, aiming to divert individuals away from the criminal justice system and towards appropriate treatment and support services.

Mission and Objectives

The mission of the LETI Program is to enhance public safety, reduce recidivism, and improve the well-being of individuals struggling with substance use. Its core objectives include:

Diversion

Identify individuals with substance use disorders who come into contact with law enforcement and divert them away from incarceration towards treatment and rehabilitation.

Access to Treatment

Ensure that individuals receive timely access to evidence-based treatment, counseling, and support services tailored to their needs.

Collaboration

Foster collaboration and communication between law enforcement agencies, treatment providers, healthcare professionals, social services, and community organizations to create a seamless continuum of care.

Education and Awareness

Raise awareness within the law enforcement community about substance use, addiction as a disease, and the benefits of diversion programs in reducing recidivism and improving outcomes.

Key Components of the LETI Program

The LETI Program encompasses several key components to achieve its goals:

Identification and Referral

Law enforcement officers receive specialized training to recognize signs of substance use disorders during interactions with individuals. When appropriate, officers divert eligible individuals away from arrest and refer them to treatment instead.

Assessment and Case Management

Upon referral, individuals undergo a comprehensive assessment by qualified professionals to determine their treatment needs. Dedicated case managers work closely with participants to develop individualized treatment plans, coordinate services, and provide ongoing support.

Treatment Options

Participants are connected with a range of treatment options, including detoxification programs, residential treatment facilities, outpatient counseling, medication-assisted treatment, peer support groups, and mental health services.

Follow-Up and Monitoring

Case managers conduct regular follow-up with participants to monitor their progress, address barriers to treatment engagement, and provide additional support as needed. This ongoing support helps individuals stay on track with their recovery goals and reduces the risk of relapse.

Collaborative Partnerships

The success of the LETI Program relies on strong collaboration and partnerships among various stakeholders, including:

Law enforcement agencies (police departments, sheriff’s offices)

Treatment providers (substance abuse treatment centers, mental health clinics)

Healthcare professionals (physicians, nurses, therapists)

Social services agencies

Community organizations

Government agencies

Advocacy groups

Legal professionals (public defenders, prosecutors)

Outcomes and Impact

The LETI Program continuously evaluates its outcomes to measure effectiveness and inform program improvements. Key indicators of success include:

Reduction in arrests and incarceration rates for individuals with substance use disorders

Increased rates of engagement with treatment and support services

Improved health and well-being of participants, including reductions in substance use, improvement in mental health symptoms, and enhanced social functioning

Cost savings for the criminal justice system and communities through reduced recidivism and reliance on emergency services

The Delaware County Law Enforcement Treatment Initiative (LETI) Program exemplifies a collaborative and innovative approach to addressing substance use within the community. By diverting individuals away from the criminal justice system and towards treatment and support services, LETI helps promote recovery, reduce recidivism, and improve public safety and well-being for all residents.

Hear From Our Patients

“MVP Recovery was instrumental in saving my life.”

I have never felt so supported in a community like I did during my stay here.

I cannot begin to describe the immense amount of gratitude I have for this program that saved my life 7 years ago. I would highly recommend this for anyone who is ready to embrace change and improve the quality of their life. I never thought I was capable of facing life’s day to day activities and responsibilities without a drink or a drug. MVP showed me exactly how to be okay with myself and find that inner peace and so much more!

I truly am a different man with a good meaningful direction.

I am so glad that I took the MVP challenge with my desire to want a better life, with the backing and guidance of the professionals of MVP I truly can’t go wrong. I did earn my 6 months clean and sober with the strong help of MVP and I would strongly recommend this to anyone wanting a new life in sobriety one day at a time always possible.

I will be forever thankful for the team that helped me turn my life around.

MVP has so much to offer. When I was down and out at my rock bottom, I went to MVP sober living, and was in the PHP, IOP, OP, and individuals. I had the best counselor and my experience was life changing. I now have 3 years sober. MVP helped me learn about myself and change my behaviors.

More than 4,000 people were connected with treatment through MVP’s Warm Handoff Programs last year.
