A Safe Place for Help

Crisis receiving and stabilization services offer the community a no-wrong-door access to mental health and substance use care, operating similarly to a hospital emergency room, that accepts all walk-ins and drop-offs. This is short-term in-person care for individuals whose crises cannot be resolved over the phone or with a mobile crisis team.
