Establishment of working group for development of recommendations regarding provision of mental health services
Mayor Johnson and Alderman Rodriguez-Sanchez propose an ordinance for a working group to expand Chicago's mental health services, supervised by the Committee on Health and Human Relations. The group, influenced by the Treatment Not Trauma campaign and its proposal, will broaden clinical services, non-police crisis response, and community resource awareness. The initiative involves the CDPH, CARE Pilot Program, CARE teams, and the expansion of CDPH's mental health budget and mental health centers, including those in Chicago public libraries and homeless shelters, informed by CDPH's Healthy Chicago Survey.
