Montgomery County, Maryland, police are working on an update to the way they handle calls for people experiencing a mental health crisis. Police Capt. Jordan Satinsky told members of two Montgomery County Council committees Monday that he’s working on a pilot program that would expand the work of the department’s Crisis Intervention Team. He said that there have been discussions with the county’s Department of Health and Human Services about pairing up a clinician with a police officer.
