“The officers were very kind. One was here before and was very, very professional. He had a lot of empathy. They were not intimidating to my son, and sat and talked with him. I was very impressed with him. He went above and beyond. Dan from Crisis is awesome! ...
I’m glad the police here have the CIT team. It truly helps.”
