Run under lawful police administrative authority subject to collective bargaining, state law and professional standards — co-responder teams follow the same legal and labor review.
The problem
When someone in crisis calls 911, a patrol car is often all that shows up — and an arrest is sometimes the only tool available. Meanwhile, people coming home from jail face locked doors at every turn, making reoffending almost inevitable.
The plan
The city pairs reentry collaboration with co-responder teams — pairing officers with trained specialists so mental-health and substance-use calls get a health response, not just a law-enforcement one.
Reentry partnerships connect people coming home from incarceration with housing, work and support, because a fresh start is the best crime-prevention program there is.
