Finding a Balanced Approach to Mental Health and Criminal Justice
You can't just throw someone in a mental hospital and expect them to get better. It's about working with them to make the right choices. We need a balanced approach that considers personal responsibility and societal issues. While we should fix the problem of incarcerating too many people, we shouldn't go to the extreme of abolishing the whole criminal justice system. We need a conservative alternative that addresses the issues at hand. It's important to meet people where they are, but also help them get to a better place. Hope and agency are closely related and both contribute to positive progress.
