What is Crisis Intervention Like?

  • The Crisis Specialist will assess the situation and determine your level of need.

  • If you need immediate care, the Crisis Specialist will find a hospital or facility close to you.

  • The Crisis Specialist will provide a safe space to actively listen and create a plan for future needs.

  • The Crisis Specialist will connect you to community resources for your situation.

  • The Crisis Specialist will offer voluntary follow-up contacts to see if you are in need of any other resources or help.
