S2 Episode 1: This is Not Care

Cassidy Wilson called a crisis hotline to ask for help. What she received was multiple police officers coming to her home, handcuffing her, and forcibly taking her to an ER for evaluation. That evaluation led to almost a week of involuntary detention.  In Season 2 of Committable we explore Cassidy’s experiences and continue our journey to deconstruct the systems of psychiatric detention that make situations like this, and the trauma that they can cause, far too common.
