Our Impact Behavioral health crisis services play a unique role in the nation’s healthcare system by providing timely and efficient support to individuals in need, avoiding the use of Emergency Departments, law enforcement & first responders, and jails and psychiatric hospitals whenever possible. Providing recovery services that are strengths-focused, client-centered and community-based, these services play a critical role in the crisis services continuum.
