Up to 10% of law enforcement calls for service involve someone with a severe mental illness. This Police-Mental Health Collaboration (PMHC) Toolkit provides resources for law enforcement agencies to partner with service providers, advocates, and individuals with mental illness or intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). The goal of these partnerships is to ensure the safety of all, to respond effectively, and to improve access to services and supports for people with mental illness and I/DD.
