Offering them treatment is relatively cheap. In comparison, you know, it takes a ton of time from law enforcement to have them on our streets taking care of our mental health and substance use crises.
Imagine a place where those struggling with substance use issues can find real support and hope instead of facing incarceration. That's exactly what the Davis Behavioral Health Receiving Center offers. In this episode of 'Healthy Mind Matters', host Maria Shilaos chats with Nichole Cunha, the Adult Mental Health Director, and Kristi Brown, the Recovery Support Program Supervisor, to shed light on this groundbreaking initiative. The center is changing lives by providing medication-assisted treatment and connecting individuals with vital services.
Not only does this approach help those in crisis, but it also eases the burden on law enforcement and shifts societal views on addiction treatment. By focusing on care rather than punishment, the program has saved taxpayers money and fostered a more compassionate response to mental health and substance use crises. Tune in to hear inspiring stories of recovery and learn how this unique program is paving the way for a brighter future.
