The Community I Serve: Law Enforcement & Persons with Mental Illness (DVD) is a 26-minute training film that presents the real life experience of law enforcement personnel, consumers of mental health services and their families. The film challenges stereotypes of law enforcement officers as rigid and uncaring, and shows the many roles that they are called on to perform. Scenarios taken from real encounters are presented, and are used to illustrate symptom recognition, verbalization skills and officer interaction with people with mental illness.
