Too often we task law enforcement to respond to mental health crises without giving them the appropriate resources & training. My new bill would create a structure that connects mental health professionals to officers to create better outcomes for those in need.

I would love to see more of the police dollars going to social work and mental health pros. Right now, these are grant funded, meaning the police don't spend a dime for this valuable service. We need sustainable solutions to increase access to services for those in crisis.
