7. The program is designed to integrate all mental health services provided to program participants by state and local government agencies and other organizations. The program shall require regular communication among a participant's substance abuse treatment providers, other service providers, the case manager, and any person designated under the program to monitor the person's compliance with his or her obligations under the program and any probation, extended supervision, and parole agent assigned to the participant.

8. The program provides substance abuse and mental health treatment services through providers that are certified by the department of health and family services.

9. The program requires participants to pay a reasonable amount for their treatment, based on their income and available assets, and pursues and uses all possible resources available through insurance and federal, state, and local aid programs, including cash, vouchers, and direct services.

10. The program is developed with input from, and implemented in collaboration with, one or more circuit court judges, the district attorney, the state public defender, local law enforcement officials, county agencies responsible for providing social services, including services relating to alcohol and other drug addiction, child welfare, mental health, and the Wisconsin Works program, the departments of corrections and health and family services, private social services agencies, and substance abuse treatment providers.

(c) 2. and 6.

(f) Two or more counties may jointly apply for and receive a grant under this subsection. If counties submit a joint application, they shall include with their application a written agreement specifying each county department's role in developing, administering, and evaluating the program. The oversight committee established under par. (e) 1. shall consist of representatives from each county.

(g) Grants provided under this subsection shall be provided on a calendar year basis beginning on January 1, 2007.
