The Collin County Commissioners Court approved designating a Juvenile Mental Health Intervention Program during its Monday meeting.

The program, a specialty treatment court, comes as a partnership between the county’s Juvenile Probation Department and the 417th District Court, according to a memo from H. Lynn Hadnot, the county’s juvenile probation services director. Centering around the court, the program is angled to serve as an outpatient treatment system that would average at about nine months for children between 10 and 17 years old who have been diagnosed with mental illness.
