How Toronto is trying to reshape mental health response for those in crisis
from This Matters · host Toronto Star
After a year of racial reckonings against growing police brutality and a string of deaths involving Black and other racialized people in crisis, the City of Toronto is investigating a new model for frontline, non-police response to mental health crisis calls. On today's episode of "This Matters," we discuss this radical shift in how such crisis calls are carried out in hopes that they do not become a matter of life and death. Guest: Nadine Yousif, Toronto-based Star reporter covering mental health. If you would like to support the journalism of the Toronto Star, you can subscribe at thestar.com/subscribingmatters.
