Policing Insight - Subscription at source 9/1/2024 Feature, Innovation, Interview The birth of an organisational field: the institutionalisation of civilian crisis response services in the de-tasking era Civilian-led, non-police crisis response services – which attend mental health crises that previously had received uniformed police response in many jurisdictions – have multiplied substantially alongside widespread calls for ‘de-tasking’ of police.

The paper then considers the potential bases of legitimacy, organisational ethos and accountability that will develop around these services, and sets out challenges that the organisational field will face if it is to avoid becoming an extension of ‘the police’.
