Community Oriented Correctional Health Services Mapping Arrestee Population Tool (COCHS M.A.P. Tool©) is a Web-based program that allows correctional center staff to locate community services such as health clinics, mental health centers, and substance abuse treatment centers that detainees are likely to need after their release. The MAP Tool records user-entered data to determine the relative relationship between the location of arrestees and the location of various community services. A tutorial is provided. Free registration is required.
