Please welcome Sam DuBois to the Franklin Police Department. Sam has been with us for a few months now and is our new Mental Health Clinician through the Jail Diversion Program (JDP). The JDP is a grant-funded program through the Department of Mental Health. It pairs clinicians with local police departments through a co-response model. Sam rides with our officers each night and responds to calls as they come in.
In addition to the FPD, Sam also works as the clinician for the Medway Police Department. Sam has a Masters's Degree from Anna Maria College in Social Work and he previously worked for Riverside Community Care as an adult clinical community services clinician.
Sam is a GREAT resource within our department, please don’t hesitate to reach out to him for services.
