We created what I call the public, the police to public health pipeline.
Picture this, a cop showing up to your house because they know what's going on in your house.

What do you need to be well?
We don't want you to die.
We're not going to use it against you.
I'm actually not going to run you.
because I'm playing this distinct role.
I'm not going to run you.
I don't want to know if there's any outstanding warrants.
I'm not here to snoop around to find something that I'm going to be able to charge you with.

It's called CLEAR, Community and Law Enforcement Assisted Recovery.
I think we have room to expand it across the whole country.
