Dane County Executive Joe Parisi says the goal of his new Crisis Triage Center is to keep people out of jail.
Parisi yesterday outlined his plan to build a new 10 million-dollar facility in Madison. He’s also promising nearly two million-dollars in county money to help run the center. Parisi says getting people help with their mental health needs will help keep them out of the criminal justice system. There’s no word on just where the CTC will be built.
