Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intervention
The Police-Mental Health Linkage System In the case of an encounter between law enforcement and subjects randomized to this group, the officer will receive a notice disclosing that the participant receives services in a mental health clinic and that he/she has the opportunity to call to speak with a mental health professional. |
When, during an encounter, the police officer decides to call the number provided in the notice, the Linkage Specialist (a licensed mental health provider from the mental health service where the subject was recruited, who has access to the clinic's EMR) can provide telephonic support to the officer.
|
No Intervention: No Intervention
In the case of an encounter between law enforcement and subjects randomized to this arm of the study, the officer will not receive any notice.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Lower likelihood of being arrested and lower number of arrests for participants randomized to receive the Police-MH linkage system.
Time Frame: 24 months of study enrollment

Hypothesis A: Patients randomized to the linkage system will be less likely to be arrested in the 24-month study period than those not in the system, based on administrative (rap) sheet data provided by GBI. Hypothesis B: Patients randomized to the linkage system will have fewer arrests than controls in that 24-month period. |
