We've returned to the early 1800's. Mentally ill people tossed in jail, instead of being given treatment. #Shatteringsilence4smi.
ICYMI, in the @virginiapilot, @NashSheriff @DaronHall7 puts the plight of police officers in perspective: the failures of the mental health treatment system have forced them to deal with medical emergencies, but that's not what they're trained for. #TreatmentNotJail #aBedInstead

In Florida's @HeraldTribune columnist @CarrieSeidman tells story of a family enduring a severe mental illness and asks, "Why is there no avenue for involuntary, intensive treatment after a crisis?" Good question! heraldtribune.com/news/20180…

In #NewHampshire, people with serious #mentalillness are sent straight to prison. Lawmakers need to stop pretending that the Dept. of Corrections is the appropriate medical authority to treat these people or that the State Prison for Men is a hospital! treatmentadvocacycenter.org/…

To be clear, @TreatmentAdvCtr isn’t fighting to stop #NewHampshire from imprisoning people with SMI to somehow “make money.” I hope this legislator has the decency to be ashamed of himself. indepthnh.org/2018/08/08/lak… – at Arlington, VA
AutismAgain retweeted
After a #NewHampshire woman expresses concern that the state confines people with serious #mentalillness, like her brother, at the NH State Prison for Men, her legislator attacks her as "naive in the extreme."
Wow! New Hampshire deserves much better.

Oped in today’s @NYPostOpinion by @ManhattanInst hit the nail on the head:
"What happens when the police want to help, but the mental-health system won’t let them?”

"..effective treatment of people with serious mental illness is simply not possible in a prison or jail. Incarceration is intended for people who understand and can follow rules. People with serious mental illness can often do neither." nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-o…
