Individuals will speak with a trained staff member that can assist callers with:
  • Phone support and problem solving to help resolve a behavioral health crisis.
  • Over the phone support for referrals to outpatient or inpatient services.
  • In-person Mobile Crisis Response Team (MCRT) that comes to the individual where they are in the community if the crisis can’t be resolved over the phone.
