NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) â A co-response pilot program will pair Metro Nashville Police officers with mental health experts trained to de-escalate situations.
Next month, Metro Police will begin testing out the program in their North and Hermitage precincts.
Mental Health Cooperative will provide six trained clinicians who will ride along with officers.
