Opis

A nationally recognised example of a pre-booking jail diversion program, the Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) model, was developed in 1988 following a fatal police shooting of a person with a history of a mental illness. This book examines the CIT model and the reasons why it is an important collaboration between law enforcement and mental health.
