- trained clinicians ride along with police officers
- more therapeutic policing
- officers can evaluate the feasibility and potential impact of using a social worker when responding to calls ]]> 2022-11-24 04:15:49 UTC https://padlet.com/neh47/ammtrrpuwtemw613/wish/2396344794 Why: neh47 https://padlet.com/neh47/ammtrrpuwtemw613/wish/2396347776 Why is a system like Connecticut's co-responder program working? 

- the program allows public safety dispatchers to send clinicians/social workers directly to a call
- clinicians/social workers can better assist someone with a mental crisis than a police officer with minimal training in that area
- this program works because there are multiple steps taken to make sure everyone is safe: the officer makes sure the situation is under control (the person has no weapons), then the clinician/social worker is able to step in and speak with the person involved]]> 2022-11-24 04:19:42 UTC https://padlet.com/neh47/ammtrrpuwtemw613/wish/2396347776 What: neh47 https://padlet.com/neh47/ammtrrpuwtemw613/wish/2396351891 In this specific example of police reform, this PD in Connecticut has successfully implemented a mental health/crisis program that:
a. can help the person involved if they are trying to harm themself, thanks to a social worker
b. can keep the community safe from threats, thanks to a police officer

“A lot of calls are mental health-related when they don’t appear to be"
