Behavioral Health Medication Assistance Program

SafeNet Rx

We're here to help

The Behavioral Health Medication Assistance Program is a collaborative project between SafeNetRx and the Iowa Attorney General’s Office that provides FREE behavioral health medications to justice-involved individuals for up to    6-months with a valid prescription.

More than 50% of Iowa’s prison population has a serious or chronic mental health diagnosis. Free access to needed behavioral health prescriptions while reintegrating into the community greatly improves the ability of an individual to be successful following release.
