In the past five months FOCUS has gotten calls from five other jail projects: Michigan, Florida, Tennessee, South Africa and recently Vancouver, Washington which are interested in replicating the program . This is really exciting, although we aren’t quite in a position to do that yet. We need to have the results of our first professional assessment (which is underway) so that we have evidenced-based results to validate our innovative approach. However, we are sharing our ideas and written materials. We look to the near future to create a useable guide for sites that are interested in working with our approach.
