Justice Involved Veterans Support Act

This bill establishes a pilot program to help prisons and jails identify incarcerated veterans by improving their documentation systems. It directs the Attorney General and VA to provide grants and technical assistance to state/local facilities, aiming to connect veterans in the justice system with VA benefits and veterans treatment courts. The program prioritizes facilities in states with high veteran populations, high veteran poverty rates, or existing veterans court programs. This directly affects over 180,000 incarcerated veterans who face barriers to accessing mental health care, substance abuse treatment, and reentry support.
