Where they stand
Mental health response: Dengler would prioritize protecting everyone involved in mental-health calls, reducing the need for force, and connecting people with appropriate care.
Mental health and jails: Dengler believes people experiencing a mental-health crisis who have committed no crime should not be held in jail.
Crisis care: Dengler would continue coordinating with EMS and medical providers to transport people experiencing medical or mental-health crises to appropriate facilities rather than using jail as a substitute for care.
