Policing is not the proper response to person-in-need calls: BLM Edmonton

Additionally, the report suggested freezing the overall police budget.
Belen Samuel, an organizer and member of Black Lives Matter (BLM) Edmonton, said in an interview with CTV News Edmonton that divesting 32 per cent of the EPS budget to supports that are more adequately equipped to properly respond to person-in-need calls is the better action than simply freezing the EPS’ budget.
“Policing is not the solution to these issues and concerns of mental health, trauma, and housing concerns.
Getting police involved right away in crisis calls like these is harmful Samuel said, who has worked at Youth Empowerment and Support Services in the past.
