Sullivan County Will Launch LETI Program, Becoming 24th County to Join

Attorney General Michelle Henry today announced that Sullivan County has joined the Law Enforcement Treatment Initiative (LETI), a collaborative program launched by the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General and law enforcement to divert individuals in need to treatment services.

Sullivan County becomes the 24th county to join LETI as Attorney General Henry continues efforts to expand the program.

PA LETI is a law enforcement-led treatment initiative that will allow Pennsylvanians in Sullivan County seeking treatment for substance use disorder by contacting probation and parole enforcement, the sheriff's department, county officials, and community stakeholders, who will then contact the Bradford-Sullivan Drug and Alcohol Single County Authority.
