In 750-1000 wоrds, рroрosе a health polіcy change (that is currently a bill, a law, or may not exist at all) at the state or federal level that you believe needs to change and why.
My topic will be the need to divert patients who are mentally ill from Arizona jails to an appropriate mental health facility, the Arizona State Hospital, where they can receive treatment and other vital support services. Diversion to a psychiatric hospital outside of jail has proven to be highly effective in reducing the likelihood of recidivism. U.S. jails are not mental health facilities. let us reestablish our jails in Arizona as centers of true justice and place mentally ill persons in treatment programs-not behind bars.)

1. Include a specific section for the exact wording for the bill or change in wording of the law. (Perhaps incorporate an initiative “to divert seriously mentally ill (SMI) patients from AZ jails to the AZ State Hospital for appropriate treatment’ into Gray Land: Housing for People with Seriousl Mental Illness in Maricopa County. **Will need to change Maricopa County to Arizona State.

**Use information in “What are Communities Doing to Tackle This Problem of the Mentally Ill Ending Up in America’s Jails and Prisons?”
1. Utilize Crisis Intervention Teams
2. Special Mental Health Diversion Courts
3. Discuss who would be the champion for the bill/change from your state advocates (legislators, state nursing organization?). Are these individuals also influential in making changes occur? Did you vote for the individual in office that you want to help you make this change?
??? I don’t know who.
Visit AZ State Governmental Affairs Website for ideas to choose champion for the bill. Or find a AZ State legislator who supports mental health issues.
