Edmonton Court Mixes Law With Psychology To Find ‘Meaningful Resolutions’ For At-Risk Albertans
Edmonton’s Mental Health Court is more important than ever as many Albertans face mental hardships amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It gives us a chance to provide more meaningful types of resolutions,” said Legal Aid Alberta staff lawyer Amna Qureshi.
The Edmonton Mental Health Court opened as a pilot project in 2018. It’s meant to help those with mental health issues better navigate the justice system.
