Abstract
It was hypothesized that clients receiving case management services will improve to a moderate extent in terms of a variety of psychosocial and clinical outcomes compared with clients served by the usual system of care. It was further hypothesized that clients served by an Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) team will have significantly greater improvement than clients served by forensic case managers working individually. Two hundred seriously mentally ill inmates leaving jail were assigned to three conditions, and 94 remained in the study at 1 year. One-year outcomes were analyzed by service condition, using a hierarchical block discriminant function analysis. Contrary to the hypothesis, more clients in the experimental condition returned to jail within a year. No differences were found among the three conditions in social or clinical outcomes. Greater jail recidivism among clients receiving the more intensive service raises questions concerning tendencies to emphasize monitoring with this population.

Use of the community program for 14 months greatly reduced the need to hospitalize patients and enhanced the community tenure and adjustment of the experimental patients, and the results suggest that community programming should be comprehensive and ongoing.

The overall conclusion is that the ASI is a reliable and valid instrument that has a wide range of clinical and research applications, and that it may offer advantages in the examination of important issues such as the prediction of treatment outcome, the comparison of different forms of treatment, and the “matching” of patients to treatments.
