About The Program
°Õ±ð±ô±ð³¦²¹°ù±ð’s Mobile Crisis Response Team, located in San Diego, recently opened in 2021. Being a mobile program makes crisis and emergency services accessible across five regions in San Diego. The aim of the Mobile Crisis Response Team is to respond to emergencies where they can, only relying on law enforcement when necessary. This includes services like in-person crisis intervention, to transportation to behavioral health sites for further assistance, if clinically indicated. The program’s success has been publicly recognized by several local news stations (see: )
