Lets communities send unarmed experts to nonviolent 911 calls instead of police.
This bill would let local governments and tribes create programs that send unarmed professionals, like nurses or social workers, to certain nonviolent 911 calls. Instead of police, these teams would respond to situations involving mental health, homelessness, or addiction. This aims to provide specialized help for people in crisis.
Today, many nonviolent emergency calls related to mental health, substance use, or homelessness are often handled by law enforcement. If this bill becomes law, the federal government would offer grants to local communities and tribes to create unarmed mobile crisis response programs. These programs would send trained professionals, not police, to respond to these specific types of nonviolent 911 calls.
