Recently, Sheriff Steve Hinkley and staff from Summit Pointe spoke at a Michigan Sheriff's Association conference about the Stepping Up program in the jail, which connects inmates with mental health services that they can take advantage of once they're released. The hope is that by streamlining services, recidivism will be decreased and people will receive the help they need beyond the jail. This program is supported with Calhoun County’s allocated ARPA funds and has impacted dozens of individuals. Check out photos from the presentation on Facebook.
