Provide the needed funds for quality mental health institutions to help control the increase in violent crimes. Make our streets safer and give the mentally ill a safe, humane environment to live in.
Why is this important?
Recent tragedies involving violent acts committed by the mentally ill highlight the need for these individuals to get help and, if necessary, be confined to institutions. I and other family members have ourselves been victims of deranged persons, including one that is himself a member of our family.
