Mobile Crisis Response Teams

A mental health crisis is any situation in which someone’s behavior puts them at risk of becoming unable to properly provide self-care, of functioning in the community, or maybe even of hurting themselves.  Just as with physical health problems, there may be times when a mental health crisis occurs unexpectedly.

Mobile Crisis Response Teams provide guidance and support to adults and children who are experiencing a mental health crisis.  The teams work closely with law enforcement to reduce the likelihood that a person experiencing a mental health crisis is unnecessarily placed in a more restrictive environment, like jail, a holding facility, hospital, or inpatient treatment.

Response teams are available in all 82 counties and can be accessed by calling the toll-free numbers that are answered around the clock by Licensed Therapists, Peer Support Specialists, and Community Support Specialists.

Response teams respond wherever a person is experiencing a crisis or at a designated location, like a local hospital.
