HB 1453 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Establishes the "Contingency Management Program" within the department of corrections

HB 1453 establishes a "Contingency Management Program" within Missouri's Department of Corrections to support substance abuse recovery for individuals on probation or parole after incarceration. Participants must meet specific requirements - including six months of abstinence, attendance at 62 approved recovery meetings, two negative drug tests, and completing a recovery workbook - to earn a $250 cash incentive, with a maximum of 28 awards available. The program is set to automatically expire six years after implementation unless reauthorized by the legislature, with potential reauthorization extending its duration to twelve years. This legislation directly affects formerly incarcerated individuals under community supervision seeking to maintain long-term abstinence.
