This an absolute Blockbuster article 80% of IMPD runs are likely MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES Less than 40% of officers have crisis intervention training because it's VOLUNTARY, despite IMPD claims that most are trained IMPD doubled its Mobile Crisis Assistance Team (MCAT) that handles mental health calls to a total of 9 officers for a city of almost 900,000 Some have been killed in encounters with officers not equipped to handle mental health issues on the streets The takeaway is that non-police solutions must be sought and funded to safely address mental health issues in Indianapolis https://lnkd.in/gBBjCw5e

Despite changes, mental health responses still fall to IMPD

Can it be made apart of a budget at the city council level …… shift funds from ‘other thinge’ to pay for this? Because honestly m, this is important and CASH RULES! Pay for the training like tgey pay for other training

The system is working as designed. Sigh. 😪
