CBC News (Canada) 21/11/2024 News, Video Mental health co-responder programs: assessing impacts and estimating the cost savings of diversion from hospitalization and incarceration To better serve people with mental illness (PWMI), law enforcement agencies have considered programmatic alternatives to arrest, transport, or informal guidance. The police-clinician, co-responder model represents one such approach that promises cost-saving deflections. This study examines a co-responder program led by specially trained police officers and mental health professionals embedded in the New Castle County Division of Police (NCCPD). It evaluates program impacts and cost savings from diversions from hospitalization and formal criminal processing. Results show that NCCPD’s Behavioral Health Unit contributed to a growing average number of confirmed connections to care per quarter. Diversions from the emergency room (n = 97) and incarceration (n = 120) contributed to cost savings of $2.8 million since the program’s inception, or over a quarter million dollars per quarter. Findings highlight the ability of co-responder models to successfully divert PWMI out of health and justice systems while diminishing associated costs.
