Event description

Join us for a gathering of local and international change-makers redefining the first response beyond police. This online national symposium will showcase real-world models and bold policy solutions – exploring not only what is possible but what is already working on the ground. Join us as we examine how to build and strengthen alternative first responses and be part of the urgent call to have diversity, community and care in the first response.
