title: General psychiatric residents and corrections: moving forensic education beyond the classroom.
abstract: Mental illness in the criminal justice system is one of the most important and underserved public health challenges in psychiatry today, but few general psychiatry residency programs offer clinical education in correctional psychiatry. Developing such rotations might seem intimidating to educational leaders unfamiliar with the criminal justice system, but a variety of potential solutions exist for residency programs to offer this increasingly important clinical training.
