It’s hard to think of anything locally that has been more needed and less productive since its founding than the Crisis Triage Center.
In 2012, then-County Manager Brian Haines recognized a serious problem. Law enforcement officers were spending too much time transporting and overseeing criminal suspects in need of a mental health evaluation and, perhaps, involuntary treatment. A trip to the state’s only mental health hospital in Las Vegas would mean 10 hours on the road. Greg’s guest on Tuesday was Carlos Rosales-Silva who currently has major murals on display at the University Art Museum at NMSU. Topics for discussion will include Carlos’s path from El Paso to New York and Los Angeles, what other things he is doing while at NMSU, and how he is using his art as commentary on current issues. (Café con Leche is sponsored by Penny Peace and George Ivolin of Mad Hatter Gallery.)
