•Police-social agency pilot project targeting mental health issues falls short
71% Informative
A one-year pilot project teaming city police and social workers to help address Calgary ’s mental health problems failed to gain much traction, says one of its participants.
The community mobile crisis response pilot received 240 calls from 911 dispatchers and sent crisis teams.
The initiative was seen partly as a way to prevent incidents from escalating into violent confrontations with police or others.
Alberta Serious Incident Response Team said Wells might have been suffering from a mental health episode because he seemed to be trying to pick up a non-existent item from the hotel lobby floor minutes before his death.
Calgary police Chief Mark Neufeld said in February 2023 that some violent confrontations with police could be prevented with earlier intervention.
