Carrboro police complete crisis intervention training

Posted on August 31, 2011 by Staff

During the first week of August, officers from the Carrboro Police Department completed Crisis Intervention Team training, a 40-hour course that provides officers with information on how to divert, when possible and appropriate, vulnerable people in crisis away from incarceration and toward treatment.
The program also informs officers about mental illness, substance abuse, disabilities, related treatment options and techniques to work well with people who are made vulnerable by related conditions.
