Police Mental Health Training (4 min)
ABOUT
We’re very proud of this promotional video on the Crisis Intervention Training program (CIT), co-run by the county public health department and the Oakland police department. CIT trains officers in de-escalation techniques for use on mental health crisis calls, a training that is essential in helping to save lives. Because our videos on the program have been widely circulated, they have educated other police departments and raised awareness in the community.
