ALTERNATIVE INCARCERATION PROGRAM

421.500 Findings. The Legislative Assembly finds that:

(1) There is no method in this state for diverting sentenced offenders from a traditional correctional setting;

(3) An emergency need exists to implement a highly structured corrections program that involves intensive mental and physical training and substance abuse treatment. [1993 c.681 §1; 1999 c.239 §2]
