What the petition asks
I believe officers should have good training to deescalate situations with people who have personality disorders, autism or ADHD instead of arresting them.
Custody is NOT a place for someone to be with severe learning disabilities or mental illness. The Government should review the training provided by the police on this, to ensure it is what is needed.
