• Policy Brief: Three Counties Integrating 911 Call Centers With Mental Health Experts, Connecting People In Crisis To “The Right Care” While Reducing Burden On Law Enforcement.
• Safer Cities Interview With Cincinnati’s Community Responders Team.
• Cities Turning To Crisis Stabilization Centers For Mental Health Treatment, Instead Of “Jail And Long Waits In A Hospital Emergency Room.”

For nearly five years, Safer Cities has tracked the programs, research, and public opinion shaping the future of public safety. Along the way, we’ve built a growing library of reporting on the approaches communities are implementing—from mobile crisis response teams and crisis stabilization centers to violence intervention programs, safety ambassadors, clean teams, and other emerging public safety strategies.

That work has grown into something larger than a newsletter: a curated knowledge base of programs, independent evaluations, academic research, public opinion data, and practical examples from communities across the country.

That’s why we built: Safer Cities IQ.
