Community Stories
"I can't state how grateful I am that Mobile Crisis exists!"
"As someone who works in schools, the difference in a child being assessed and transported to the hospital by a mental health professional vs the police dramatically impacts the young persons feelings of shame, stigma and receptivity to treatment. We need you!”
"This service has helped our family"
"They helped to de-escalate the problem and to find a reasonable compromise for all involved. Keep up the great work.”
