Gabriel London: "The Definition of Insanity" Film Screening
The Definition of Insanity is an exploration of the Miami-Dade Community Mental Health Project — a novel approach to solving the mental health crisis that could be a model for America. Shocked by how people with mental illness were treated in Miami-Dade’s jails, Judge Steve Leifman works with a team of dedicated public servants, as well as former adversaries in the criminal justice system, to help people with mental illness navigate from lives of tragedy to possibility. The film reveals a humane criminal justice approach to mental illness that is orchestrated from the court outwards into the community through its novel Jail Diversion Program. Join this livestream to watch the film and hear from the director, Gabriel London, during a Q&A session directly after the film.
