Résumé
"This report presents the findings of the Provincial Human Services and Justice Coordinating Committee (HSJCC) project on police/mental health collaboration in Ontario. The document offers a provincial examination of issues related to police/mental health collaboration, and highlights successes and challenges of collaboration. Information contained in this report was obtained through three methods: a document review, a survey of Local HSJCCs, and a series of key informant interviews. Three key questions are addressed: What legislation and policies impact on police/mental health collaboration? What types of police/mental health collaboration initiatives currently exist in Ontario? What are the issues related to police/mental health initiatives?"--Page iii.
