Youth Mobile Response Services: An Investment to Decriminalize Mental Health
CLASP released a new report today, “ Youth Mobile Response Services: An Investment to Decriminalize Mental Health. ” In this report, we evaluate the role of law enforcement and mental health systems in the United States and their relationships to racial justice - recognizing that over the past few centuries these systems have caused more harm than good.
This new report highlights an important alternative to using law enforcement to respond to mental health and social crisis: mobile response. While many states already have a mobile response system, they often lack the resources and structure to effectively and equitably engage communities of color. In this report for federal, state, and local government entities, we offer examples of states that have created good mobile response systems, principles for implementation, funding opportunities, and federal recommendations.
We have provided the link to the full report, as well as a social media tool kit. We hope that you will share this report widely with your partners and promote it on all of your social media platforms. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to reach out to Whitney Bunts ( [email protected] [[email protected]] ) or Nia West-Bey ( [email protected] [[email protected]] )
