The city of Detroit announced Monday a partnership with the Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network that it hopes is a step toward fixing a "broken system" by adding behavioral health support to police, 911 call takers and homeless outreach workers.
DWIHN will offer Detroit police officers and 911 call takers crisis intervention team training. It also will embed behavioral health staff at the 911 call center, and with police and homelessness community responders.
The new collaboration, which is based in part on programs in other metropolitan areas, is expected to reduce overall incarceration and hospitalization costs and provide better treatment options to people who need it.
