Over the past six (6) months, the IACP met with core staff from the New York City Department of Corrections team a total of five (5) times to provide customized TTA and discuss programmatic updates. Over the past six months, the project has focused on preparing for increased training needs with the new healthcare-focused jail facility at Bellevue Hospital. They are hiring two instructors and have scheduled five days of training in November, with ongoing refreshers and Mental Health First Aid sessions. Data collection on use-of-force incidents in mental health areas continues, but documentation of de-escalation encounters has not resumed. Challenges include delays in the implementation plan due to CHS's involvement, a lack of leadership buy-in, and severe staffing shortages impacting training and officer wellness.
