County District Attorney’s office.  Within that role, she serves as the Stepping Up 
coordinator, which is a national initiative to reduce Serious Mental Illness (SMI) in prisons/
jails.  Dauphin County worked with the Council of State Government to receive technical 
assistance in 2016, which resulted in recommendations to address individuals with SMI 
in the local prison.  Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training for law enforcement and a 
Coresponder program model, working side by side with law enforcement, are two of the 
recommendations that Dr. Yinger implemented and is overseeing, among a few others.

Dr. Yinger graduated in 2019 with her PhD in Criminal Justice with a focus on Justice 
Administration. Her dissertation entailed the experiences of Police Officers who are CIT 
trained.  Much of her research interests has included individuals with special needs and 
their involvement with the criminal justice system.  She has over 14 years’ experience 
in human services.  Prior to Dauphin County, she was the Mental Health/Intellectual 
Disabilities/Early Intervention Administrator in Franklin and Fulton counties.

Outside of her work in the County, she also serves as an adjunct professor for Penn State 
Mont Alto and Shippensburg University, in their Criminal Justice department.

Identified Data Fields:

We have done our best to automaticly identify and name form fields according to our naming conventions. When possible, we've used names tied to our question library. See e.g., user1_name. If we think we've found a match to a question in our library, it is highlighted in green. Novel names are auto generated. So, you will probably need to edit some of them if you're trying to stick to the convention.
