Abstract
For individuals experiencing a mental health crisis, a health‐focused team of workers with mental health expertise should be deployed instead of police, just as an ambulance would be dispatched to help someone experiencing a physical health emergency. Any failure to do so violates the civil rights of people with disabilities, according to a new issue brief released Jan. 16 by the Bazelon Center for Mental Health Law and the Vera Institute of Justice.
