When the Offender is Mentally Ill
Having an offender who has been diverted through the forensic mental health system can be a frustrating, confusing and disempowering experience. We encourage you to not draw conclusions at this time, and instead get the right information and knowledge which is available through our team on 1800 774 744.
Alternatively, the Queensland Health Victims Support Service is a service available to help you understand the processes and what your rights are throughout this time. They are available within the State of Queensland on 1800 208 005. They also provide a comprehensive resource guide which they can post you out, or alternatively you can download from their website which is:
