The Justice Involved Veterans Support Act mandates the Attorney General, in collaboration with the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, to establish a pilot program . This program will offer grants and technical assistance to State prisons and local jails, aiming to enhance the documentation of whether inmates are incarcerated veterans . The primary purposes of this initiative are to assist both federal and state agencies in providing appropriate benefits to these veterans. Furthermore, it seeks to increase the number of veterans in the criminal justice system whose cases are diverted to veterans treatment courts or similar diversion programs. In selecting grant recipients, priority will be given to jurisdictions in states with high per capita veteran populations, high rates of veteran poverty, or those that already host a veterans treatment court or diversion program.
