Regarding the Nov. 9 Metro article "Mobile unit aids D.C.'s mentally ill during crises":
How nice to read about an aspect of the mental-health-care system that is functioning well. The new mobile crisis team in the District is an example of what can work in a broken system. Nicholle Hill's quote at the end of the article -- "there is a certain privilege that goes along with being able to be there for somebody in their darkest moment" -- points to how effective it is to have educated, caring and trained professionals doing this kind of work in our community.
