A discussion about mental health and what police should be doing in their responses to people in crisis was held Thursday in Manchester days after a mass shooting left 18 people dead in Maine.Manchester police said a vast majority of their calls are either people experiencing a mental health crisis or an overdose.Law enforcement officers from Manchester, Bedford and the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Department said they rely on their community partnerships when responding to calls for people in crisis.Mobile crisis response teams can be found throughout the state, and officials said they’re an important way to make sure the people who are best fit for a situation will respond to the crisis.Manchester Police Chief Allen Aldenberg said his department works closely with mental health centers and peer-to-peer counselors.”They are hard calls, but you have to balance someone’s privacy versus that they are not yet a danger to anybody else,” Aldenberg said. “How far can law enforcement take it?”The Bedford police chief said police can always use more resources, especially at a time when police departments and mental health facilities are experiencing staffing shortages. He said every officer has mandated training every year on mental health issues.The discussion was organized by Republican presidential candidate Asa Hutchinson.Officials also spoke about the opioid epidemic and how it’s affecting New Hampshire and the country, saying that people need to better understand the hold the drugs have on their users and that they need to find better ways to cut off the supply.
