Excellent- More about Changing Times: Transforming Culture and Behaviors for Law Enforcement
The police are often the first responders to mental health crises, but there are still shortcomings in the criminal justice response system. Changing Times: Transforming Culture and Behaviors for Law Enforcement proposes a shift towards diversion and treatment for those in behavioral health crises, and encourages law enforcement intervention away from the criminal justice system. The book blends theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience to provide a comprehensive understanding of the factors that influence attitudes, culture, and behavior and how to bring about change. The challenge is to bring about systemic change in culture and attitudes.

The police play a crucial role in responding to individuals in crisis, including those with mental health issues. While there have been positive changes in the criminal justice response to behavioral health, there are still shortcomings in access, availability, continuity, coordination, and responsiveness. However, there have been accomplishments in changing attitudes and behaviors through programs such as Crisis Intervention Specialist Training, CIT Training, and Mental Health First Aid, which have been well-received.
Changing Times: Transforming Culture and Behaviors for Law Enforcement proposes a shift towards diverting individuals in a behavioral health crisis away from incarceration and into treatment. The book blends theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience to provide insights into the influences of law enforcement's tradition and other factors that shape attitudes, culture, and behavior. The authors aim to empower readers to bring about systemic change in culture and concurrent changes in attitudes and behaviors.
Changing Times serves as a reliable and accessible reference for those committed to improving the vital effort of diversion. It emphasizes the importance of collaboration, education, and empathy in addressing behavioral health crises and promoting positive outcomes for individuals and communities.
