Manhattan Felony ATI Court: Reflections on a New Approach to Alternatives to Incarceration

The Manhattan Felony Alternatives to Incarceration (ATI) Program has diverted more than 230 court-involved individuals away from incarceration, allowing them to remain in the community.

The program aims to prevent recidivism through a comprehensive, collaborative approach that integrates programming and services with court supervision and monitoring. Nearly 50 participants have successfully completed the program, avoiding up to 258 years of detention.
