MENTAL HEALTH

Cops want mental health supports improved article By Joe Fantauzzi See full article here July 13, 2011 click here

But Newmarket-Aurora PC MPP Frank Klees, who welcomed the police chiefs’ resolution, took aim at the government’s strategy, alleging it does not provide adequate resources to deliver on the vision.
“A vision without resources is futile,” he said.
His party is committed to a mental health strategy and “properly resourcing it”, he said, noting governments that don’t invest in mental health supports and leave police to do the job are penny wise and pound foolish.
“This is an area we need priority investment of resources,” he said.
Mental health is often a subject people don’t want to talk about and that leads to parents not getting their children the treatment they need, he added.
While he believes people who break the law should be held to account, what people with mental illness encounter in the criminal justice system is punishment, Mr. Klees said.
“That’s why we have the recidivism we often have,” he added.
