The Criminal Justice System Has a Mental Health Crisis | NowThis

CRIMINALIZING MENTAL ILLNESS: ‘No one’s mental health is helped by being in the jail’ — Throwing people with mental health issues in jail and prison is a national crisis, according to these public defenders. » Subscribe to NowThis: http://go.nowth.is/News_Subscribe » Sign up for our newsletter KnowThis to get the biggest stories of the day delivered straight to your inbox: https://go.nowth.is/KnowThis In US news and current events today, public defenders have spoken out about the mental health crisis in our criminal justice system. In order to enact criminal justice reform, we must raise mental health awareness, especially when it comes to our most vulnerable populations. We can't shout Black Lives Matter when a disproportionate amount of Black people are suffering in prisons, many with untreated mental illness exacerbated by cruel conditions. You don't have to be a public defender to understand why the fight for social justice and human rights intersects with criminal justice reform, and we hope the people at Zealo.Us will continue their battles for humane treatment for prisoners with mental health issues. #MentalHealth #CriminalJustice #MentalHealthAwareness #News #NowThis #NowThisNews Connect with NowThis » Like us on Facebook: http://go.nowth.is/News_Facebook » Tweet us on Twitter: http://go.nowth.is/News_Twitter » Follow us on Instagram: http://go.nowth.is/News_Instagram » Find us on Snapchat Discover: http://go.nowth.is/News_Snapchat NowThis is your premier news outlet providing you with all the videos you need to stay up to date on all the latest in trending news.
