The Mobile Response Program supports people wherever they are, whenever they need it. A trained Mobile Response Team consisting of a Mental Health Clinician and an Engagement Specialist will be dispatched to individuals who are experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis.
The Mobile Response Team meets with the person, completes an assessment, and helps the person find a solution to the immediate situation. We can immediately link the individual to mental health services and provide referrals. The team can help find a safe place to recover if needed. Emergency transportation may be provided to shelters, crisis respite centers, hospitals, or substance use treatment centers.
Be part of a team that works as partners to help in the moment. Support each other as you help those in need. Collaborate and use your skills to provide appropriate mental health responses that can reduce the need for emergency room visits or police intervention. The following positions are available as part of our Mobile Response Team:
Use your lived experience with recovery to help others. Make connections to empower people and inspire hope. Show others that mental health struggles can happen to anyone and that recovery is possible.
