Thank you.

We have heard from a number of witnesses that the solution may lie in the training of police officers. In other words, officers should receive training on mental health, addiction and other relevant issues that would help them in the field.

I appreciated what Ms. Audette said last week—police officers can't be superheroes. They can't be fully trained on everything.

Do you think organizations like yours can play a supporting role in the field to help police?
