The current jail's old age has created serious problems for corrections officials
The Van Buren Office of Community Corrections will get $150,000 to support pretrial supervision services
It's part of a more than $2 million package awarded to Kansas criminal justice organizations
The program targets individuals who have been found incompetent to stand trial and are waiting in jail to go to the state hospital
The program is being funded through a state grant with the New Jersey DOC
The program has been nationally recognized for its ability to provide comprehensive education, housing, financial, medical, and social support
The program would keep first-time and youthful offenders out of the criminal justice process altogether
The money will fund six grant programs to provide multifaceted support to communities and health care providers
