Abstract: This is the protocol for a Campbell systematic review. The objectives are as follows. The current review will provide criminal justice and policymakers with information regarding the efficacy and effectiveness of co‐responder programs on criminal justice and social service outcomes. Specifically, the authors will address the following research questions: (1) Do co‐responder police‐mental health programs reduce the frequency or likelihood of criminal justice system involvement (e.g., offending, police welfare check, victimization) among those experiencing homelessness, drug and/or alcohol addiction, or mental health crises (hereafter “vulnerable populations”)? (2) Do co‐responder police‐mental health programs improve social service outcomes among vulnerable populations? (3) Do the effects of co‐responder police‐mental health programs vary by the following factors: study research design, geographical location, type of population, type of outcome (e.g., official vs. unofficial reports), and intervention characteristics (e.g., setting, type of practitioners)?
