Creates behavioral health court pilot program.

New Jersey's S 2038 creates a pilot program for behavioral health courts, allowing eligible defendants to receive court-ordered treatment instead of prison sentences. The bill applies to individuals convicted of non-violent offenses who need behavioral health services (e.g., mental health or substance abuse treatment), have no prior violent convictions, and meet specific criteria like not possessing firearms during the offense. Courts must order participants into licensed treatment programs and monitor compliance, with probation revoked for violations (permanent revocation after a second violation). The program is limited to counties/municipalities that apply and operates as a pilot in at least two counties and five municipalities.
