Joseph asks about 988 usage in NYC public schools
Joseph asks about 988 calls from young people in schools. Tisch says NYPD doesn't collect demographic data on 988 transfers and suggests asking 988 operators. Joseph also requests mental health 911 call numbers by council district.
How many calls do you get from young people?
Do you track that?
We would not have that data.
That data, you should need to ask 988, the people who run that, because all we do is transfer the call so we don't collect the demographic.
And how many mental health-related calls were this training would be applicable if you were to do it?
You can get back to me on that.
Mental health related 911 calls?
Yes.
We can get you the number of mental health 911 calls.
Yeah.
I know that in the first 15 days, 204 calls were transferred to 988, but that is nowhere near the total number.
You're asking for the total number of any EDP call we get.
