Canadian police agencies and their interactions with persons with a mental illness: a systems approach
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the 1980s, Canadian police began to experience different demands on their resources with respect to their interactions with persons with a mental illness (PMI) who were in crisis. Deinstitutionalization of PMI and an increasing emphasis on individual rights required a different business model. Change initially was slow but progressive police leaders soon realized that a systems approach was necessary to work cooperatively and collaboratively with other elements of the social service system, such as mental health and the wider criminal justice systems. Subsequently, across Canada various models were designed and programs delivered to better serve those with a mental illness, in particular when they are in crisis; these models now enable police and mental health service providers to better deploy their respective resources.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
