Seattle is changing its approach to emergency services with Community Assisted Response & Engagement, also known as CARE, the city’s third public safety branch alongside its police and fire departments. We go 1-on-1 with Chief Amy Barden for an update on the recent citywide expansion of CARE’s crisis responder teams, and how she is working on creating a more flexible and compassionate system to address overdoses and public safety in the city.
