The Sheriff's Guide to Navigating the Politics of Homelessness, Addictions & Mental Illness

This Week in Homelessness with Daniel McDonald

This is a recording of my presentation to the 2024 National Sheriffs' Association Winter Conference in Washington, D.C.
I cover issues such as:

• How did homelessness, addictions and mental illness become a law enforcement issue?
• How to navigate the politics of these issues (and not lose the next election)
• Redefining the sheriff’s role in the 21st Century: You can no longer “stay in your lane

Legal issues including the upcoming SCOTUS case Johnson v. Grants Pass Oregon.
