How well does CONREP work for patients other than NGI?
• CONREP has a more limited mission, and consequently more limited success, with PC 1370 (Incompetent to Stand Trial) and PC 2960 (Mentally Disordered Offender) patients. • Incompetent to Stand Trial patients had a rearrest rate of 20.2% during one year of community exposure while in CONREP programs (6). • Mentally Disordered Offenders had low rates of rearrest while in CONREP treatment, 10.6% during one year of community CONREP exposure, but after leaving CONREP almost 40% were rearrested within two years (compared with less than 15% of NGI’s at two years post-CONREP) (8).
