18. I moved out of state to a university. While I didn’t pay for the first two years I was away from family and had to make my own decisions. I had to get a work study job to have cash for the dorm lifestyle. In the Sumer in between I shared rent with a friend from high school and worked full time. After two years I dropped out to work for a year, trained as a CNA and then went to a different university and paid my own way.

Do you think police need more training and awareness of mental illness? Currently in my state they need just 16 hours.
