Get Justice-Involved Veterans BACK HOME Act

This bill establishes a pilot program to provide mental health care to incarcerated veterans, prioritizing those with service-connected disabilities related to PTSD, traumatic brain injury, or military sexual trauma. The program would offer telemental health services, mobile mental health units, or other appropriate care at no cost to veterans, with care delivered exclusively by Department of Veterans Affairs health care providers. Additionally, the bill requires the Bureau of Prisons to establish dedicated housing units for veterans in federal correctional facilities where feasible, along with specialized training for correctional staff and veteran-focused rehabilitation programs. The legislation also mandates automatic resumption of disability compensation payments upon a veteran's release from incarceration and requires annual reports on incarcerated veterans to Congress.
