Now, about half of its 2,200 daily inmates require mental health services, presenting significant challenges for the Sheriff's Office and jail staff. This situation has necessitated a delicate balance between providing necessary mental health care and maintaining security. In response, a mental health task force was established in 2021 to improve support and training for handling mental health issues within the jail, highlighting a broader need for comprehensive mental health support in the criminal justice system.
