MCMHRB GRANT: The Mahoning County Mental Health and Recovery Board has received a $39,000 grant award from the Criminal Justice Coordinating Center of Excellence for the enhancement of the Crisis Intervention Team training. Every police department in Mahoning County now has at least one CIT-trained officer. This includes the Sheriff’s Department, YSU Police Department, Mill Creek MetroParks Police Department and both Akron Children’s and Mercy Health police departments.

CIT training is a 40-hour, five-day intensive training in which officers gain a better understanding and learn new techniques to recognize and react to someone experiencing a mental health emergency. This biyearly training is free to law enforcement and funded through the MCMHRB’s levy dollars.

Through the grant, campaigning will take place to educate the public on the role of a CIT officer and how to request one. The grant will also develop specialized training for emergency dispatch and advanced training for specialized populations, i.e. adults on the spectrum. Funding also will be used to cover the cost of specialized training kits for the officers to use during the training.

For people living with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, routines and reminders can be critical for helping them to live their best life possible.
