Today the City of Indianapolis announced the details of the new $2 million, Clinician-Led Community Response (CLCR) program. The Moser family tells WRTV this program could have saved their son.
The CLCR program, approved by the City-County Council in 2022, will engage with residents in their time of need to"reduce unnecessary entanglement in the criminal justice system."
The City said the initial CLCR teams will operate out of the City-County Building. They will respond to 911 calls that meet the criteria outlined by emergency services. The first phase of the program will include four teams, comprised of a clinical supervisor, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a peer specialist."Adam would still be alive," Adam's Mother Liz Moser said.
A week before his 40th birthday, Adam Moser was having a mental health crisis. His wife, called 911 after he expressed suicidal thoughts.The Nassau County Sheriff's Department in Florida took the call. Police reports say Adam lunged at the deputies with two knives, ultimately leading to his death. No criminal charges were filed against the officer involved."We deserve better. We deserve not being treated like we just robbed a 7-11," Liz said.
The city says Stepping Stone is currently training clinicians and anticipates launching teams over the coming weeks.
