@inthehands Here in Durham, NC, we apparently hit a home run with our HEART program https://heartforthis.org/about/ for non-violent crisis intervention. Loving it.

And yet, there's a reactionary undercurrent in favor of more policing based, as I see it, on three ongoing problems:

1. gun violence
2. unhoused folk
3. traffic safety

I'm not aware of any *effective* measures the city can bring to bear on these, given state hostility to city governments and, of course, the corrupt Supreme Court.
