Mobile Crisis Response Teams (MCRT) help people during a behavioral health crisis. MCRT is an alternative to law enforcement response and can help:

• Stabilize people in the community
• Connect people to community resources and treatment services
• Avoid a trip to the hospital or jail

Team members are behavioral health experts and include three staff members (a licensed mental health clinician, case manager, and peer support specialist) who can make assessments, de-escalate the situation, and connect the person to the right services. Transportation to local services is also available, if needed.

MCRT services are available countywide and serve people of all ages.

MCRT cannot respond to calls if there are threats of violence or medical emergencies.

If you or someone you know needs help with a behavioral health crisis, call 9-8-8 or the Access and Crisis Line at
