Reintroduced police reform bills focus on mental health, disabilities


Amid calls for police reform nationwide, democratic and republican representatives alike are backing new legislation to change the way law enforcement respond to some 911 calls. 
Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) introduced the Law Enforcement Education and Accountability for People with Disabilities (LEAD) Initiative in the Senate Monday. It is comprised of two bills that promise to reduce police violence against people with disabilities and in mental health crises: the Safe Interactions Act and Human-services Emergency Logistic Program (HELP) ACT.

I knew about 3-1-1 and 9-1-1, but I never knew about 2-1-1 until Senator Bob Casey held a media call last week and talked about two major bills he just proposed in Congress. These two bills would assist families with members who have intellectual disabilities in that instead of calling 9-1-1 when their relative is having a mental crisis, they can call 2-1-1 and get someone who is trained to deal with mental crisis to respond.
