Baltimore students could benefit from a similar policy shift. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eW4Rk3wd

In focus groups and interviews for Part 1, Black Baltimoreans shared their honest opinions and hopes for the future. Part 2 explores how other cities implemented alternative responses to non-criminal emergency calls, like mental health crises, to glean lessons Baltimore can apply as it expands its own program.
