Policing Alternatives & Diversion Initiative (PAD) offers wraparound services to people experiencing extreme poverty, substance use and mental health disorders. The nonprofit organization also responds to non-emergency calls. PAD was expecting to renew a contract with the City of Atlanta. However, the city is pulling back. Moki Macias, who serves as the executive director of PAD, returns to “Closer Look,” to talk more about the unfolding situation and the future of her organization. 

“Luther: Never Too Much” is a new documentary that chronicles the life of the late Grammy-award-winning R&B singer, songwriter and record producer Luther Vandross. Documentarian Dawn Porter talks with Rose about creating the film and reflects on the life and legacy of the legendary singer.
