Closed Mandate mental health and disability training for all police officers

Closed on

Mandate training on mental health problems, disabilities (both physical and mental) and how to help these people in distress for all police officers.

Fund Mental Health and Disabilities Officer job roles to support police officers and people with mental health issues and disabilities.

All police officers should be trained on these issues and how to deal with them appropriately. The creation of a Mental Health and Disability Officer job role would relieve pressure on existing officers, create new jobs and to make sure people who know how to handle these situations are there to support the police.
