We interview two people who have mental, behavioral, or developmental disabilities about their symptoms, their experiences with police when they were suffering a crisis, and whether they support a police response to mental/behavioral/developmental crisis.
Just as a reminder, in Illinois, a law called the Community Emergency Services & Support Act, or CESSA, requires that all mental/behavioral/developmental emergency calls for service that are nonviolent & noncriminal are responded to by alternative first responders (this is a non-police model).
