Panel Description
Law enforcement agencies around the country are exploring alternative strategies, called deflection, to promote safer and more positive interactions between law enforcement and people who have behavioral health needs. These strategies aim to prevent future crises and link individuals to community-based services facilitated by specially trained law enforcement officers. This panel will discuss how these efforts have helped law enforcement respond to the unique needs of their communities.
Speakers:
Description: Deflection is a collaborative intervention connecting public safety and public health systems to create community-based pathways to treatment for people who have substance use disorders (SUDs), mental health disorders, and other service needs, without their entry into the justice system.
