Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Criminology
  • Mental Healthcare Policy

Background:

  • De-institutionalization has led to increased police contact for mental health patients.
  • Current systems often result in psychiatric emergency units, ERs, jails, and prisons as primary points of contact.
  • Despite specialized training, the criminalization of individuals with mental illness is rising, leading to adverse outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review modern Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) configurations in large cities.
  • To examine the co-responder model and community-based programs.
  • To identify barriers to effective collaboration in mental health crisis response.

Main Methods:

  • Review of contemporary large-city CIT programs.
  • Analysis of the co-responder model's implementation.
  • Assessment of community-based program impacts.
  • Identification of challenges in inter-agency collaboration.

Main Results:

  • CIT models and co-responder approaches show promise in improving mental health crisis response.
  • Community-based programs can mitigate negative outcomes.
  • Significant barriers to successful collaboration persist.

Conclusions:

  • Enhanced collaboration between law enforcement, mental health professionals, and community resources is crucial.
  • Addressing systemic barriers is essential for reducing the criminalization of mental illness.
  • Further development of integrated crisis response systems is needed.
